Description

Wheezy’s Pidgin takes its systray icons explicitly from the hicolor icon theme (instead of the current theme) rather than from current theme.

icon_path = g_build_filename(DATADIR, "icons", "hicolor",
icon_sizes[i].dir, "apps", icon_sizes[i].filename, NULL)

Pidgin is written in C. The upstream code is there: https://hg.pidgin.im/pidgin/main/ The upstream ticket about this is https://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/16274

It was reported upstream, and three years later I fail to see if this is a “real” problem for Tails. Closing this ticket. Please reopen it if you think it should be followed up on.
