Description Kevin Kofler 2014-10-27 03:13:10 UTC 
Description of problem:
Adwaita is the default cursor theme in Fedora, hardcoded in the libXcursor package (by making /usr/share/icons/default inherit it). (For that reason, it is also a dependency of kde-settings.) Unfortunately, that theme now cannot be installed without a >11 MiB icon theme.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
adwaita-icon-theme-3.14.0-1.fc21

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Try to install adwaita-cursor-theme.

Actual results:
adwaita-cursor-theme is only a Provides of the huge adwaita-icon-theme package.

Expected results:
adwaita-cursor-theme is a small subpackage of adwaita-icon-theme containing only /usr/share/icons/Adwaita/cursors and not the icons.

Additional info:
I hit this on the KDE-only Fedora Remix "Kannolo" I'm working on.

I pushed a slight variation of the patch, does this work for you guys?

Comment 4 Rex Dieter 2014-10-28 13:54:15 UTC 
works for me, though it's not clear to me now whether the icon scriptlets are needed for cursor-only themes or not.  I'd previously assumed yes, since the creation of the cursors/ subdir may update the modification time of the parent dir (and invalidate the cache)
Comment 5 Kalev Lember 2014-10-28 14:54:14 UTC 
It probably isn't needed because adwaita-icon-theme has a hard dep on the new cursor theme package. This means that rpm always orders transactions so that adwaita-icon-theme gets installed last -- and runs its icon cache scriptlet then.

But if you want to add it, feel free to, I don't mind :)

Hopefully we'll be able to delete all the icon cache rpm script crazyness soon. I hear file triggers support is in the works and targeted for the next rpm release.
Comment 6 Kevin Kofler 2014-10-28 15:44:15 UTC 
Your change works for us, but you probably want to add this to the adwaita-cursor-theme subpackage:
Conflicts: adwaita-icon-theme < 3.4.10-3

This ensures that, if the user has adwaita-icon-theme-3.4.10-2.fcNN or older installed and does a "yum install adwaita-cursor-theme", it will upgrade adwaita-icon-theme to the new version. Without the Conflicts, the user gets a file conflict instead.
