What’s new in the new version 20?

• The new versions has won new colours of folders, based by Alexey Varfolomeev’s Papirus:

• Almost all mimetype icons have been redesigned with new colours and are based on NUmix mimetype icons:

Installing with CLI

It is too easy and quick to install. I recommend strongly the SVN. Firstly you must install both packages git and subversion.

Git

• Install the package git;
• Clone the repository :

$ sudo git clone https://github.com/gusbemacbe/suru-plus.git /usr/share/icons/Suru++

• Set the icon theme:

$ gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface icon-theme "Suru++"

• And do you want to keep updating?

$ cd /usr/share/icons/Suru++
$ sudo git pull

Subversion

Run SVN like a Millennium Falcon with coaxium than Git, less than 10 parsecs:

sudo svn export --force https://github.com/gusbemacbe/suru-plus/trunk/ /usr/share/icons/Suru++

Changing the folder colour

Please visit directly the tutorial: Suru++ Folders. The tutorial is translated in 7 languages.

Known bugs

This icon theme do not apply correctly the apps icons

Some apps, as AppImage-built, Snap-built and dpkg-installed apps do not use relative path or relative icon. They use absolute path. Other apps use misleading icon name, for example, GitHub Desktop uses the Icon=desktop.

Some icons are not applied correctly and look bad in KDE

Since this new version is officially supported for KDE, please report the misdisplayed icon to m that I will analyse and fix.

Report

• Do you find the missed icons?
• Do you find the misused icons?
• Did you find the errors?

Report, but please provide well-detailed informations. Or I will have difficulty to understand what you are saying or to know which app you are referring.
