Hey, thanks for Qogir.

I prefer to use the visual design chosen by upstream developers for each app. So, for example, I don't want the Firefox icon that Mozilla provides with Firefox replaced by the one in this theme.

Unfortunately, changing this isn't as easy as just rm -r apps, because a bunch of the generic icons in that directory are needed. For example, KDE's system settings application uses preferences-desktop.svg as the icon in the app for "workspace behavior". It expects this icon to be available in the user's chosen icon theme, or the icon is broken. (Perhaps there's a workaround for this by adding the Breeze them as an explicit fallback in Qogir, but even in that case it would only work for KDE apps.)

So what I'm hoping is that there's a way the Qogir installer can isolate icons that are intended to replace app defaults (e.g. in the taskbar), and have the option to not install them.

No problem! I'll add this option!

Thank you!

Hey, just wondering if you had time to look at this. I saw there was a new release of the icon set at pling, but it doesn't look like you tagged a new release here.

@vinceliuice wondering if you might have a chance to look at this - it would still be very useful to me. Thanks!
