Description Sadi 2021-03-31 08:36:09 UTC

I've just noticed that tor-browser icon has been deleted 2 months ago, because "the upstream icon is actually quite Breeze-like now. So our Breeze-style
variant does not seem to be needed."
But when I select breeze icon theme, no icon is displayed for Tor Browser now.
I don't know what is meant by "upstream" here.
It can't be gnome or hicolor icons - and they don't have that icon anyway.

The upstream icon can be found in the Tor Browser download archive [1] (tor-browser_en-US/Browser/browser/chrome/icons/default/).
You can also view the icon here. [2]

For Arch Linux, the AUR package installs the icon to /usr/share/pixmaps/. [3]

Thanks! Now I understand what "upstream" means in this case.
I've now copied that icon to my local folder ~/.local/share/icons/breeze" and it looks great. I don't know if this is a better way. ;-)

"upstream icons" means the icon from the app itself. If the app doesn't install any icon at all, that would be a bug in the app pr its packaging for your distro. Apps shouldn't rely  on any particular icon theme being installed on the user's system.
