Icon Themes no cache file - Dave W - 05-20-2022
I installed this elementary-xfce and one of the icon themes has
"Warning this icon theme has no cache file"
Than is suggests I can fix this by this command
gtk-update-icon-cache /user/share/icons/elementary-xfce-darkest
I than type
sudo gtk-update-icon-cache /user/share/icons/elementary-xfce-darkest
I get this result
output gtk-update-icon-cache: No theme index file. Its this a folder type or a config file?
Other icon themes have this issue on some if the icon themes. One is obsidian theme which I liked. I now have since removed. I can apply the same solution other icon themes.
Thanks
Dave

That's not the source. Where did you get it from?

That is where I got the command to fix the issue which is on the image I sent. I did a web search which did not provide much of insight.

I guess your asking where did I get the theme from it was synaptic.
Solved: Icon Themes no cache file - Dave W - 05-22-2022
I fixed it by removing the icon theme thanks. I did more research on this issue and its been around a long time and the only distribution that applied a fix was Linux Mint. I found another icon theme on synaptic that does not have this issue.
I was evaluating Linux lite compared to others. I will take my experience into account.
