Confirmed, problem solved. :-) Thank you!

I think it’s 'bzr patch genesis.patch'? Anyhow, it worked.

Thanks for the feedback. I see your points. I’m a bit torn: On the one
hand, I’m tired of working on the icons, and wanted to release the new
package soon. On the other hand, you’re probably right and I should
spend some time on polishing them.

Hm, I’ll see in which mood I am tomorrow. ;-)

Cheers,
Frederik
