GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 689388
should install highcontrast app icons
Last modified: 2013-02-20 13:24:17 UTC
We are aiming to have an highcontrast app icon for all apps in 3.8. See https://live.gnome.org/GnomeGoals/HighContrastAppIcons
Created attachment 236504 [details] gnome-nibbles symbolic icon
Created attachment 236505 [details] gnome-nibbles HC icon
This problem has been fixed in the development version. The fix will be available in the next major software release. Thank you for your bug report.
Jimmac said we should skip the -symbolic for now (and then aim to fix this properly for 3.10).
