 In this rather lengthy post I talk a bit about the current issues with icons for the KDE applications I work on or use.

 ## What do I mean with 'KDE Applications'

 The KDE project did their job, at least for Kate I never did have any issues with icons on Plasma.

-### Linux & BSDs
+Below a screenshot of Kate 24.02 running on Plasma 6. All icons are there, they are properly re-colored for the dark theme, too, including not just the used Breeze icons but for example the small Git icons in the left sidebar that Kate has bundled.

+This is the vanilla state each user will get if Kate is installed on Plasma (and the dark theme is used).
+There are no patches done during building to achieve that nor is there any extra user configuration necessary.

-I think that is rather unpleasant and for e.g. the left icon-only border just an unusable insult.
-
-## Why? The Adwaita Icon Theme no longer follows the FDO icon naming spec
-
-There was no information that they want to break away from the icon naming 'the world' does assume (given there is a [spec](https://specifications.freedesktop.org/icon-naming-spec/latest/ar01s04.html)).
-And now we have that state for our users there, at least on these spins.
-
-That is not that nice, we did spend a lot of work to get our applications working cross-desktop and even cross-platform and now that...
-
-I feel rather infuriated, finding this before going to sleep, even more after reading the feedback in the [GNOME bugtracker](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/adwaita-icon-theme/-/issues/288) and that this is just closed as 'so be it'.
-
-They added now at least a hint to the README:
-
-[**Private UI icon set for GNOME core apps.**](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/adwaita-icon-theme/-/commit/ad605446a829420b659c7f360333e4309a8f4a55)
-
-Ok, I assume that is then all fine.
-
-No, it is not.
-
-Then please don't install it as FDO icon theme and break all FOSS apps that rely on the naming spec...
-
-If you care for non 'GNOME core apps' to work per default properly on distributions like that, please either get them to fix it (hints are given in the [linked issue](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/adwaita-icon-theme/-/issues/288)) or get the distributions to install a compliant theme.
-
-We can plan to work around this mess in [the future](https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/kiconthemes/-/issues/3) on our side, but that will not un-break the application versions that are now already shipped to our users and non-KDE frameworks based stuff that will just run into the same issues.
