Issue description
adwaita-icon-theme
is not an FDO-compatible icon theme, which is the entire reason thatadwaita-icon-theme-legacy
was created. For compatibility reasons, I think it makes sense to replace references toadwaita-icon-theme
withadwaita-icon-theme-legacy
.Context
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/adwaita-icon-theme/-/issues/288
Apps which heavily utilise the FDO spec, sometimes have missing icons due to
adwaita-icon-theme
not following the spec.Alternative
adwaita-icon-theme
could be renamed toadwaita-icon-theme-minimal
, andadwaita-icon-theme-legacy
(the one that's actually an icon theme) could be renamed toadwaita-icon-theme
