Missing icons on setup.py installation

Did you install .deb package from GTG PPA, or did you install GTG from sources?

The problem occured only when I performed an installation from source with "sudo python setup.py install", then I deleted the files and re-installed with the PPA (I didn't know what PPA meant at first) and everything works like a charm.

Please note you have to pass --install-layout=deb option to setup.py script
to correctly install GTG on recent Ubuntu versions (9.04 "Jaunty" or later):

    $ sudo python setup.py install --install-layout=deb

r271 added a note in README to document this.

I'm having the same issue-- no icons-- after installing from PPA on ubuntu jaunty. I'm using fluxbox, not gnome; might be a missing dependency in the package?

That's indeed possible. Could it be that we depend on an icon theme or something like that ?

do you have folders :
/usr/share/icons/hicolor
/usr/share/gtg/icons/hicolor/

?

We don't depend on a specific icon theme. For standard icons (like
quit or delete), GTK should fallback on the default theme. For
GTG-specific icons (like Mark as done, Dismiss, etc.), we depend on a
GTG-specific theme which should be installed in the folder you
mention.

Never mind-- I didn't realize that I had to select a color for my tag (maybe a black border around the tag icon would make this more obvious?). Everything is working fine. Thanks for your help and my apologies for the confusion.
