So you are saying that many gk3-using applications work totally fine
when there is no icon-theme package at all installed?  That sounds
different from what I heard earlier from others (which is not an
accusation that you are wrong, simply an observation that we have
inconsistent information).

I had trouble with gajim, but I know believe that's a gajim/NetBSD
issue, not a theme issue.

Agreed; I don't like unnecessary dependencies either.


Anybody else?
