hi everyone,
it's probably a silly question yet still,
I've installed (i.e. downloaded and copied to icons folder) a "numix circle" icon pack. the thing is, from all other icons and apps I have everything looks fine besides thunderbird.
I have installed thunder... without bindist, just as I did with firefox and the FF icon get replaced out-of the box, but the thunderbird icon does not get automatically replaced.
initially I thought, perhaps the icon pack came with a typo but that's not it...

did anyone else encounter a similar issue? can you tell me how to fix this?
thanks ahead

never mind, I managed to solve it.
for future references, what I did was changing the name of the thunderbird icon file inside the numix-circle directory, to match the one inside usr/share/pixmaps.

still have no idea why is it important, I mean why is the pixmap file names are important, but as long as it works...

Could you perhaps be more specific?

He needed to change the name of the file due to fact the thunderbird.desktop files uses a specific name already.
