HiDPI version of 64px is not the 128px one #9

This is a common mistake to take the 128px icon instead of the 64@2 one. For more information about the differences: http://blog.elementary.io/post/124193007916/whats-up-with-hidpi-icons So it could be a good idea to provide 2 icon sizes at 2 scales: 64, 64@2, 128, 128@2

That's not an issue with the DEP-11 generator, but a spec issue, and mainly originates from the AppStream HiDPI support predating the XDG HiDPI support. I will probably adjust the data generator to take the HiDPI XDG icon for the 128x128px icon, since those icons are by the AppStream specification HiDPI isons, and not "real" 128x128px icons. Happy new year! :-)

Okay then you will need to take the 64@2 icons instead (which have a 128x128px size)

Happy new year to you too!
