[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
I installed Krita, hicolor-icon-theme, adwaita-icon-theme, and
oxygens-icons into my profile on a Debian system.

Krita starts, and it can open files, but there are no icons in the Krita
toolbox.

It may require wrapping as in commit
9cc51d16cb22f8a0c50fe81c98abb3b9108db9ff.  Before this commit librecad
would not be able to render its icons as it had no runtime support for
plugins provided by qtsvg, which are accessed via QT_PLUGIN_PATH.

It looks like propagating qtsvg would work too (which adds a search path
for QT_PLUGIN_PATH).  Maybe we should do that on packages that installs
icons as SVG files?

Leo: Does installing qtsvg into your profile fix the problem?

Both options work. Which do you think is the better one?

Thanks for confirming.  That means this issue is actually a duplicate of
<https://bugs.gnu.org/22138>.

I think wrapping Krita is better "for now", although propagating qtsvg
somewhere could be a more general workaround.

We should fix that long-standing bug though...

Okay, I pushed the wrapper as 990e93fce16a83e1603b9ec28123ec3edc7ea787.

I usually think that package propagation is worse than wrapping.
