Hi David,

Thanks!

Your package searching is certainly better than mine: i had found the package kdesdk-scripts before, but not code-aster-gui nor anyremote-doc.

I've installed all 3 of them, but still get the same error message.

Also /usr/share/icons does not have a subdirectory crystalsvg although it does have a subdirectory gnome. (But maybe that's a red herring.)

Or maybe i have to install the kde desktop and use it at least once to get crystalsvg to work?

Anyhow, thanks for your help, any any other advice or suggestions.

Hi, try this:
https://packages.debian.org/search?searchon=contents&keywords=crystalsvg&mode=filename&suite=stable&arch=any

A little update here: i installed task-kde-desktop --- all 1.9G ---

And if i run okular from a terminal on the Plasma desktop (as a different user), okular issues no warnings.

But when i switch back to xfce, and run okular from a terminal as my normal user, i still get the

Icon theme "crystalsvg" not found.

message.

So i suppose the kde terminal is set up with just the right environment variables or something.

Any clues are appreciated!! :)
