Created attachment 277867 [details]
example

I create a g_themed_icon_new_from_names() with {"icon-symbolic", "icon"} as arguments.

Since 3.13 this shows a non symbolic icon while 3.12 shows the symbolic one. Only passing "icon-symbolic", makes both versions show the symbolic one.

Company pointed out on IRC that this is a known bug, but since there was no progress on fixing this last week I'm reporting it here so it doesn't get lost.

Example (Python) attached.
Comment 1 André Klapper 2014-06-04 15:50:26 UTC 
Likely a regression from the changes in https://mail.gnome.org/archives/desktop-devel-list/2014-April/msg00086.html
Comment 2 Matthias Clasen 2014-06-28 05:48:01 UTC 
Example program shows 2 identical icons here. I assume this is fixed, then.
Comment 3 Christoph Reiter (lazka) 2014-06-28 07:39:33 UTC 
Not here, but I guess it's something with my jhbuild env then. Thanks for looking into it.
Comment 4 Christoph Reiter (lazka) 2014-09-21 18:31:56 UTC 
See the same thing on debian (non jhbuild) now. It only happens if another icon theme is used (gnome-brave in my case).

The question is if ThemedIcon should search for all names in each theme separately or consider all themes for each name.
Comment 5 Matthias Clasen 2014-09-21 18:52:14 UTC 
this is just more of the same: patching icon themes together by inheritance is just conceptually broken.
Comment 6 Christoph Reiter (lazka) 2014-09-21 19:15:06 UTC 
I can confirm that https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=737000#c11 fixes this.
