Qubes OS release

4.2

Brief summary

When renaming a disposable from a upgraded 4.1 system, that uses the "template" icon (a small translucent box behind a small opaque box), 4.2 will change the icon used to be the standard "appvm" icon (one big opaque box).

(also happened on a 4.2 "clean" install, but less certain of the procedure used in that case)

Steps to reproduce

make a disposable qube in 4.1
upgrade system to 4.2
open settings for the disposable qube
rename the qube

Expected behavior

icon to stay the template icon

Actual behavior

icon changes to the "appVM" icon

(however, disposables created from it by clicking on it in the "apps" menu, that then show underneath it, do show the correct icon of a "reversed template" (where the small opaque box is on the upper left instead of the lower right)

Note: I saw a qubes security advisory of qubes using the wrong icon color, so thought this might count as important, as its similar.

This might be a generalization of #8930 (which is a kde specific report)

To determine if i'm using xfce4 or kde, in dom0, I did: ps aux | grep xfce which shows lots of results, and doing: ps aux | grep kde shows no results, so I believe I am using xfce4.

Another tidbit: The correct icon started showing after I rebooted the system
