Bug Description

Binary package hint: smc

Current smc package shows a item in the GNOME menu but the icon is
missing because smc.xpm is in ..../pixmaps/smc folder. In order to
appears, the icon should also be in /usr/share/pixmaps, so I suggest
to fix this bug with a simple symlink.

Here's a patch which fixes this problem for ubuntu. However since the package is synced from Debian, it would be better if this bug was fixed in Debian and then synced to ubuntu. Patches has already been submitted to Debian bug tracking system as well.

Since this bug looks like it won't be fixed for intrepid in debian, I would like to ask Ubuntu sponsors for universe to review my debdiff for upload to intrepid.

Yes, I did know smc is synced from Debian, but I also noticed there is a brand new version upstream, so I hoped THAT would enter Debian, not the old patched one. But I alsonow realize that this would not make it into Lenny, so it's good that your patch was already sent.

For the translations, I'll try to send them upstream, since fixing this problem in Debian is only a temporary solution...

If the problem of your debdiff is only changing the Maintainer, I would probably be able to do it before september 25th, but if you can do it, please do it, I have not much time in those days. It is not even clear to me how the GNOME icon cache works, so I should spend some time on it (I will do it because I'm interested in it for another package, but this is not the best period for me).

Uploaded, thanks for your contribution.

I made one small tweak, removing the mention of the maintainer
field from the changelog, as this happens to every package modified
in Ubuntu it's not really useful information, and convention is now
to not mention the change in the changelog.

Thanks,

James
