The vscodium-git AUR package also has this issue

That's odd. The icon doesn't seem to be changed 🤔 . Made it copy to the "normal" icon place in linux now too. @y0nei can you try the new version in the AUR?

Yea now it has the correct icon lol, but why is the desktop file named codium-wayland instead of vscodium-wayland in /usr/share/applications now? I installed the vscodium-bin package that was the newly updated one.

Lol great

Ehrm ill investigate the naming thing tomorrow

[crueter]

Wayland requires icons to be in the standard XDG directory as far as I can tell, its icon spec is weird and doesn't at all follow X11's.

Not sure about the naming thing because I haven't touched the package in a while, totally forgot I was even the maintainer

[Icelk]

@y0nei Regarding the naming, it has been like that for at least half a year. But either way .desktop file naming is pretty arbitrary right?

Hmm that's funny, just now from that update that fixed the icon issue had the .desktop file names changed for me. Anyway, should i close this issue now or should i wait till the same fix gets pushed to the regular vscodium packages' PKGBUILD too?

@daiyam manages those two packages, and it doesn't seem to be fixed just yet.
