Bug Description
Binary package hint: openoffice.org
In Feisty, there's a new icon set for OO.o, "Human". OO.o chooses the adequate icon set automatically to fit to the current theme. This works for most of the themes, including Human default theme.
But some don't work. For example, choose "IndustrialTango" theme while OO.o is closed, when start it: OO.o uses "Crystal" icon set, which really doesn't fit with Tango. This is also true with "Silicon" theme.
But there's a real mess here. Just try to change your theme while OO.o is running: switch between "SphereCrystal" and "Silicon", for example: you get other icon sets than before with the same theme. Then, if you restart OO.o, it will go back to the previous (but still not fitting) theme.
I'm not able to provide an exhaustive list of the problems: looks like there's a complex mess, maybe some theme doesn't allow OO.o to guess which icon set to use. Anyway, this is quite ugly with some.
confirming. you may want to modify the ooo-build/ patches/ src680/ {human, tango}* patches.
