Hey, there's already a beaver icon in Mint-Y, but it's not used, because the application uses a hardcoded path for it's icon.

This means, if you open the dbeaver.desktop file in /usr/share/applications with a text editor, e.g. xed, you'll find the line:

Icon=/usr/share/dbeaver/dbeaver.png

It's an absolute path, instead of an icon name. You have to change that line to

Icon=beaver

There's nothing we can do on our side to change that. The apps developer can decide, if they allow their app icon to be themeable, i.e. being an icon name, or if they want it to look the same no matter which icon theme the user is using, i.e. pointing to exact location of the icon (using an absolute path).

You can change it for yourself as described above though.
