bug#48636: Gajim does not load the "close" icon on the chat window

Hello!

So Gajim does not load the close icon in the chat window under sway.
It also doesn't remember my password.  I have to type it in again
everytime I open Gajim.  Some people in #guix said that I should file
a bug report.  I am using a T400 laptop running osboot.

Obligatory screen shot is attached

I have adwaita-icon-theme and hicolor-icon-theme in my system profile,
which I think makes some gtk stuff play nicer. I would suggest
installing them if you don't have them. Especially hicolor, since it's
mentioned in your error output. I also have gnome-themes-standard and
gnome-themes-extra, so those may also be worth installing if the other
things don't do the trick. IIRC some gtk themes don't stand completely
on their own, and so they'll have missing bits if you don't have some of
the basic ones like adwaita. It's also possible you don't have any icon
themes at all.
Perhaps the hicolor icons should be made a dependency so users don't
have to figure this out on their own. I recall another package getting
that treatment a while back.

I have stopped using gajim.  I find dino to be 2x as stable.  I am
closing this bug report.

You can work around this part by going to Gajim menu -> Preferences ->
Advanced and toggling "Use System Keyring" to off. In theory setting up
something like gnome keyring or similar should also work with the
default setting and then save/access passwords that way. I could not
figure it out after hours of trying stuff, but if you toggle that
setting, it will save your passwords without relying on a keyring. I'm
not sure if it's less secure or something in exchange.

P.S. If you need to close Gajim, ctrl-q will do it, or the sway keybind
(default super-shift-q) can close it too. Not a fix for the button being
gone, but maybe it'll help.

Thanks!  That worked!
