Bug Description

After the latest upgrade to qbittorrent v2.6.2-0ubuntu1~lucid, and libtorrent-rasterbar6 v0.15.5-0ubuntu2~lucid,
the UI icons are all messed up. I've included a screenshot as an attachment to this bug report. I've painted red arrows on the screenshot using Gimp to highlight which icons are messed up for your convenience. A few of the other windows also have messed up icons including search tab window. Please take a look at the screenshot I've provided for a more detailed view of the problem.

Thanks.

This is because your icon theme is buggy, there is not much I can do about it.

You have two solutions:
- Use another icon theme that works
- Disable the use of the icon theme from advanced program preferences (it will use the ones shipped by qBittorrent instead)

I might have an idea to improve this. I'm looking into it for next bugfix release.

The icon theme I am using was working fine before the current upgrade. Whatever got upgraded in qbittorrent or libtorrent-rasterbar stopped my current icon theme from working properly in qbittorrent. The icon theme I a have been using and am still using is "QDark Sleek".

As for the first suggested solution:
I shouldn't have to change the way my entire computer system looks just to satisfy one program that doesn't play well with my chosen theme. That being said, changing themes on my system did work as a solution without having to restart qbittorrent.

For the second suggested solution:
While using "QDark Sleek", disabling the use of system icon themes from the advanced tab of the options menu solved the problem only after restarting qbittorrent.

Thank you for your suggestions and solutions.

I don't think you understand. Your icon theme was *not* used before, this is why it used to work.

Using the icon theme is a new feature in qBittorrent but it still has some issues.

I have found a way around the issue. It will work fine in next release (while still using your icon theme)
