Comment 1 Nate Graham 2024-10-16 18:12:32 UTC
Arguably, the right approach here would be to make all the "folder-*-symbolic" icons be black. Most already are, but some use a different color inherited from the non-symbolic version. This is probably fine for the small sizes of the non-symbolic icon, but not for icons explicitly requested in symbolic form.

Icons that would need this "make it black" treatment are:
- folder-android-symbolic
- folder-blender-symbolic
- folder-crash-symbolic
- folder-important-symbolic
- folder-java-symbolic
- folder-podcast-symbolic
- folder-rpm-symbolic

There are also a few symbolic folder icons that are not actually symbolic at all that I noticed in the process:
- folder-deb-symbolic
- folder-trash-symbolic

Monochromize not-explicitly-colorized symbolic folder icons

We have symbolic versions of folder icons, but currently they're all
just symlinks to the 16px and 22px versions of the base icon. Most of
the time this is fine.

Some of those folder icons are not monochrome at those sizes, though;
they intentionally retain their color. This is normally fine, but not
desired for symbolic icons, where we want to expunge as much color as
possible — except for the folder icons that are explicitly and
intentionally colored that way.
FIXED-IN: 6.8
