Let me interrupt your sighing for a second and quote David Johnson who responded with: I think the best place for the icons is their "default" location, namely ${LOCALBASE}/share/icons//. Why? Because there is an effort underway to create standard locations for icons and other desktop resources (www.freedesktop.org). The only reason GNOME icons aren't there is because GNOME is installed to X11BASE instead of LOCALBASE. It's easy enough to find the icons if you're using GNOME, Windowmaker, or something else. It is not all about whether something useful or not in non-X environment. There are other issues out there to consider; and yes, my original intention was to put them under ${X11BASE}/share/ (that is, DATADIR with USE_X_PREFIX). ./danfe
