[David Castellanos <davidcaste@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi again!

I think I've solved the problem. It wasn't a programming problem, it
was a packaging one! :-)

I was very confused at first because I was able to get some other
icons for Humanity and Humanity Dark themes with lookup_icon(), but it
failed with the Genesis ones. The problem was the icon cache, which
wasn't refreshed after installing the package. I was able to refresh
it manually for Humanity theme calling 'gtk-update-icon-cache
/usr/share/icons/Humanity', and after googling a little I found the
debhelper's program dh_icons. The only change necessary was to add a
call for 'dh_icons' in debian/rules file. Then when calling
'dpkg-buildpackage' it will automatically generate in the file
debian/rules the necessary call to gtk-update-icon-cache in order to
refresh the icon theme cache.

I've made and attached you a patch for this, you can applied it with
'bzr merge genesis.patch'.

I like the new icon tray theme, but IMHO the curved arrow should be
thinner and the pipe underneath a little bigger, because the pipe
looks like a shadow more than a pipe. But it's just a suggestion, as
you prefer :-)

Cheers!!!
