Bug Description

Binary package hint: rhythmbox

Hi,

Ubuntu uses /usr/share/app-install/icons/rhytmbox.png as the launcher icon. For some reason it looks fuzzy and out of place in the menu. /usr/share/icons/hicolor/22x22/apps/rhythmbox.png looks crisp and fine, though, so in my opinion that icon should be used.

thank you for your bug report, what ubuntu version do you use? how you determine what icon is used? there is no directory specified in the desktop file and no reason why the app-install variant should be used there

I'm using Hardy. It seems I was wrong about what icon is used now: If you launch Alacarte, edit the rhythmbox launcher and click on the icon, you'll see that /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/rhythmbox.png is the one being used.

It seems, however, that the launcher is not using the 22x22 version but a larger one, scaled down, which makes it fuzzy.

would be nice to have the change upstream rather than having the use sharutils to distro patch an icon this way

I've unsubscribed the sponsor team, having icon added in distro patches is ugly and that should be fixed upstream rather

The icon on the nautilus context menu seems to be the wrong size, too. I'm attaching a screenshot of how it looks vs. how it should.
