Expected Behavior

I have a huge monitor and crappy vision, so I use a large vertical taskbar (72px width) in KDE Plasma with large icons. The taskbar icons usually are scaled from a higher resolution source.

Actual Behavior

The icon for insomnium that is being recognized by KDE seems to be one of a low resolution, so it looks pixelated when blown up to the size that I use. Compare to the others adjacent to it:

Reproduction Steps

  1. Install Insomnium from the AUR on Arch Linux while using KDE Plasma.
  2. Right click on your taskbar and increase the width to a large number (I am using 72px width).
  3. Open Insomnium and view the taskbar icon.

Is there an existing issue for this?

Additional Information

This might be related to issue #38, but I am using the AUR source. I can add my scenario to that issue if you prefer.

Overall this is a very minor issue that doesn't bother me much. Thank you for the work that you are doing on this wonderful and privacy-respecting alternative!

This was actually an issue with the version I had installed. I searched the AUR and installed the package "insomnium", but I didn't realize until later that the correct package on the AUR was "insomnium-bin".

I uninstalled "insomnium", deleted my icon-cache file, installed insomnium-bin, reinstalled kiconthemes, and rebooted. Now the icon is correct.

hmm that's quite werid; could be the difference between .gz and .deb

Seems like a difference between your pkgbuild and theirs. Theirs is installing this icon locally, which is still the original insomnia icon and low resolution too. Yours is using this icon, which is the new insomnium icon you were intending.
