The above applications are part of the KDE Gear releases, but the described issues and solutions naturally are not restricted to stuff released with that.
-Therefore, all talked about in this post is only interesting for such applications.
+What most of these applications have in common is that they rely on rather large parts of our Frameworks.
+With that they depend at least indirectly on an icon set that covers large parts of what our default icon set Breeze provides.
+Even if you use no icons from that icon set yourself in your application, just using the standard actions or many widgets/dialogs from Frameworks will rely on some subset of Breeze.
