Unfree icons on Trisquel
- Login o registrati per inviare commenti
So I was looking for some graphics to play with in inkscape. I went to the icons folder and found some grapics that are svg copies of unfree logos in /usr/share/icons/oxygen/scalable/apps. I don't recall installing these, but I may have. I the file contains mostly free graphics, but also the AIM, Netscape, Realplayer and StarOffice logos. It shouldn't be a huge deal, but these logos are nonfree and need to be removed.
My .../apps folder only contains the file "phonon-xine.svgz". Nothing else there.
Hi,
I have been checking your issue on my computer and this directory
doesn't exist on it. Have you installed any package recently? It would
be nice to know the origin of this files, it'd be a problem if they are
on the repositories. :~
Thank your for taking care of Trisquel users freedom ;)

The icons come from a package in Synaptic used by Amarok and Konqueror called kde-icons-oxygen. I also found the icons in /usr/share/icons/default.kde4/scalable/apps (don't know if that comes preinstalled). There is also a AIM logo in /usr/share/icons/gnome/scalable/apps
The ICQ symbol in /usr/share/icons/oxygen/128x128/apps, /usr/share/icons/default.kde4/128x128/apps look very close the original (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:ICQ.svg).
Wikipedia classifies the bluetooth logo as non-free (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Bluetooth.svg)
On http://www.bluetooth.com/Bluetooth/Press/Media/Downloads/ it says:
"The logos below are owned by the Bluetooth SIG."

OK, the problems seems to come from the package "kde-incons-oxygen"
since I haven't got it installed and I neither have the icons.

I supose you refer to "im-aim.svg", that's a free image, it's not the
official aim icon, it's just a copy.
Thank you a lot for your help, I'll try to contact Trisquel maintainers
to solve the problem as soon as possible,
Regards,

I can confirm what bitf says about these icons -I guess I also have installed the same package from KDE.
