[Pkg-xfce-devel] Bug#625694: thunar: Thunar will not use plain 'images' as icons for custom actions

[johan spee]

Package: thunar
Version: 1.2.1-6
Severity: minor

Thunar's 'custom actions' allow the use of images (rather than icons) to be
shown in the context menu. But is refuses to use plain images: they are not
shown in the 'custom actions' dialog or in the context menu.

I tried jpg png and xpm, both from my home dir and from the system but none
were accepted. The images themselves may therefore not be the problem.
