Description Sudhir Khanger 2015-11-25 18:43:41 UTC

APK files and possibly other files like msi have no icons in Dolphin. They aren't even assigned some default icon for unknown file types. Dolphin correctly recognizes them as archive formats and assigns ark as default file handler. Not even fallback icon theme is being used to assign some icon.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to any folder containing apk file.
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
APK files have no icons.

Expected Results:  
Should have a proper apk file icon or at least an unknown file type icon.

sample file with the missing icon problem

Also I have tried deleting icon cache with no luck of course.

rm -fv ~/.cache/icon-cache.kcache

KeePassX file also missing icon

KeePassX database file are also missing icons.

Comment 5 Uri Herrera 2015-11-26 16:53:23 UTC

It'd help if you could add the name of the mimetype. I don't have/use. KeePassX (and I don't want to install it).

"application/x-keepass" should be the mime type for keepass database. Is that what you are asking?

Comment 8 Uri Herrera 2015-11-26 20:08:01 UTC

Yes. Though, this bug is fixed as it was about the APK mimetype. Open a new one for the KeePassX DB mimetype.

Comment 9 Syam 2015-11-27 01:23:56 UTC

But how did the APK type end up with no icon? If there's no icon assigned, shouldn't it get a default icon?
Otherwise we'll have to open bug reports for every other type that has this problem. So far, we know of three - APK, MSI and KeePassX. But what if there's more?

> But how did the APK type end up with no icon? If there's no icon assigned, shouldn't it get a default icon?

It's always been like that. I don't remember if in Gnome you do get a default icon for mime types. I know there's one for applications.

> Otherwise we'll have to open bug reports for every other type that has this problem. So far, we know of three - APK, MSI and KeePassX. But what if there's more?

And it would be the same. There would be reports for missing mimetypes or there would be reports for mimetypes using the same icon.

I don't have GNOME installed, so can't comment on that. But wouldn't it be easier if known mime types that do not have any icon are also rendered with a default icon?
If I create a new file with some random contents and a random extension (dd if=/dev/zero of=foo.hku bs=1M count=1), the file is shown with an unknown type icon (the one with a question mark).

Is it possible for KDE to have a default icon for all mime types that don't have an associated icon, irrespective of whether GNOME does it that way?

Comment 12 Uri Herrera 2015-11-29 20:40:11 UTC

There's that one and one that is even more generic as it is blank: application-x-zerosize

But yeah, visually there should be an icon in use. However this is not an icon theme issue this is up to the apps or frameworks and I don't know against which component this should be reported.
