GTK icons missing with EXWM

GTK icons missing with EXWM

Hi Guix!

I run EXWM (Emacs X Window Manager) and while I don't use many GTK
applications, the few of them I use are missing lots of icons: epiphany,
gtk-youtube-viewer are good examples.

I've installed gnome-icon-theme and I believe it fixes a few icons, but
lots are still missing.

Should I install a specific package?

I also had issues with missing icons. I seem to have got at least most
of them (maybe?) with:

- adwaita-icon-theme
- hicolor-icon-theme

in combination with `gnome-icon-theme`.

I also have installed (but suspect are irrelevant, but just in case they
aren't):
- font-awesome
- arc-icon-theme

Thanks, installing Adwaita fixed the missing icons in Epiphany.

I find that hicolor-icon-theme and gnome-icon-theme are rather useless now that
adwaita-icon-theme is installed.

gtk-youtube-viewer is still missing about half the icons.  Could there be
something broken with the package?

Did you find a fix for this?

The manual seems to lack a section about icons.
Could some of you add that now that you have some experience with this?
