Package: cinnamon-desktop-environment
Version: 3
Two years ago, gnome-icon-theme and gnome-icon-theme-symbolic were
abandoned upstream and merged into adwaita-icon-theme. [1] [2]
I encourage you to do what the Debian GNOME team has done recently and
remove the icon theme dependency from individual cinnamon packages and
add it to cinnamon-desktop-environment instead.
Drop dependency on gnome-icon-theme:
- cinnamon-control-center
- cinnamon-screensaver
Drop dependency on gnome-icon-theme-symbolic:
- cinnamon
- cinnamon-control-center
Add dependency on adwaita-icon-theme:
- cinnamon-desktop-environment (this may not be needed since
libgtk-3-0 already depends on adwaita-icon-theme)
Thank you,
Jeremy Bicha
