[gentoo-user] Updated to gnome 3.10 using overlay and menu item icons disappeared

Hello there,

I updated to gnome 3.10 from the gnome overlay (was using 3.8 earlier from
the default portage tree) yesterday.
Now, in various applications the icons in menu items have disappeared.

Like the new tab icon in Firefox menu, new document icon in libreoffice
file menu and so on. For all applications that are GTK based. QT based,
like Virtualbox seem to be fine.

I tried a couple of solutions -

Reinstalled librsvg, gdk-pixbuf, ran gtk-icon-cache, ran
gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders --update-cache

checked org.gnome.desktop.buttons_have_icons & menus_have_icons - both were
set to true.

Still no icons.

What's missing?

Hi Nilesh; before trying to find the problem, why are you using the
GNOME overlay? GNOME 3.10 is in the tree since last December[1].

Also, which GNOME overlay? The official one[2] or Heather's[3]?

Regards.

I'm using the official gnome overlay - because the tree doesn't have 3.10..
err wait.. it's hard masked :/
But anyway, I now installed from gnome overlay and not considering going
back.

Now I know why people hate gnome. Though they developed quite a nice DE --
converted a loyal KDE user. Such decisions by the project are bad :/

Just for the record, I use GNOME 3.10 (from the tree), and everything
works fine.
