Linux shows wrong version installed and wrong browser icon #712
Comments
After looking at this a little bit, I think we need to allow for dev/beta specific icons in the script They obviously have different icons for dev/beta and we should provide for this to integrate with the desktop. I will work on a patch soon. |
So this isn't as simple as I thought. I'm unsure how chromium produces dev/beta icons in their build, because they aren't in the repository. @simonhong do you have any ideas how we can mimic what they do for browser icons with dev/beta? I see that in their packages they have differing icons depending on the channel:
But in their source they don't have files with dev or beta in their name:
If you can give me input on how the grd files ( |
FYI, windows icons in linux are handled by below in

I think we should add more resources like
In chromium project, I think chrome team does not include google_chrome brand resources in I think we should add more resources for linux like |
Thanks for that input @simonhong. Since we only have one dev/beta branded png image, I will configure the build to include that for now, but we should open another issue to create the full complement of dev/beta images. There are a number of uses for the various sizes of png images, and without all of them we are not providing the full experience that chrome has. If I change the build scripts to include both the standard png images and the dev/beta png images, the dev channel build behavior still shows as above, with the normal color product logo when launching the browser. If I instead only include the dev/beta product logo it properly shows the blue dev channel product logo. But this is the only logo included in that dev/beta build and I would expect we need other logo sizes for other images. For now this single image works in my testing. |
When building dev/beta channel on Linux, the release png images were being packaged even though the alternate color images should have been present in the package. This corrects that behavior. Fixes brave/brave-browser#712
