SVG icon has a black background in KDE #38

For some reason, the hieroglyphic svg icon has a black background in KDE menu and file manager. The issue is present in every KDE systems I have tried, in different operating systems (Ubuntu, KDE Neon, Arch). But the issue is absent when I open it in inkscape.

This issue only appears in KDE but not in GNOME. The issue was inherited from the TeX Match icon.

The solution is to create a fresh SVG file and copy paste the contents of the icon into a new file with same document size in inkscape (PR coming soon), so the problematic background is not copied.

Thanks for the report. I think it's worthwhile to also create an issue on the KDE side, since it shouldn't render transparency black. Does this also occur with other GNOME apps?

cc @bertob: I think you've made both the TeX Match and the Hieroglyphic icon, any idea what could cause that/if that's an issue of the icon?

I don't think we're doing anything special here, it's a pretty standard icon exported via App Icon Preview. If the problem happens here it should happen with every other GNOME icon as well...
