Hello. My icons from the applications menu are missing. The Live CD of Ubuntu Mate 20 is normal with all icons.
Mostly the categories icons are missing but the calculator is missing too.

@lah7 I asked to join the team on https://www.transifex.com/mate/MATE/ to help with future translations, and to complete the missing ones.
I also want to help on this particular problem, helping to identify possible new wrong translations on icon names.
Nice! This particular issue is resolved, since the MATE team updated their build process so it won't use erroneous strings (even if they appear to be translatable) any more. The issue lies with the packager for Debian/Ubuntu to release the fix.

(Mark yourself as "this affects me too" to increase the heat )
I'm also not a MATE developer nor MATE member, so it's over to their team to approve your translation membership.
Hello @lah7
Can you please help and provide an example? about what it's supposed to be the final file?
How can this happen? Many days have passed since the error has been detected and has not yet been fixed. Too bad such a good project has an error being ignored.
O erro ainda segue, sem solução.
How is it possible that this is still not fixed? A fresh installation in Dutch still have this problem.
The solution in post 13 works for the application icons. But I can't get the solution in post 14 to work for the category icons, even after replacing the .mo file.
Well, @lah7's workaround works, but in addition you have to do that in all *.directory files located in /usr/share/mate/desktop-directories /
For exemple, take the mate-office.directory file:
sudo sed -i '/Icon\[/d' /usr/share/applications/*.desktop
sudo sed -i '/Icon\[/d' /usr/share/mate/desktop-directories/*.directory
sudo update-desktop-database
Hope this helps!
Brilliant, works for me
Oh, thank you These three commands works great
So there was no need to edit/replace .po files...
Hello,
Center control does'nt show some icon (path missing ?).
All users on this machine are set up ok, only one user got this bad 'look'. No theme setup was made.
Is there a way to "reset" control center ? or ti specify the path / link to hte correct icon ?
Thanks
It does not seem to be exactly the same problem, my menu shows the correct icons for all applications for all other users on this machine with the same language (fr), this is only affecting one user, only in "control center", any idea on how to edit the "path/link"...or fix this ugly picture ?
In fact, since release 20, these 2 menu shouldn't be part of de control center, it comes from a restore of the release 18 for that user, do you think I should remove and re-install mate-control-center ? Or is there a config file I could remove / edit / reset /copy ?
It should look like this picture
mate-control-center
Ubuntu MATE 20.04.1 was released today. I am disappointed to say that this issue has not been resolved in this point release.
I have updated the Launchpad Bug with this result and encourage everyone that continues to be affected by this to continue to update the bug report to generate more on this issue.
Please continue to use the work-arounds listed in this thread.
I can only speak for myself, but I do apologize that this continues to be an issue.
The commands helped solve the issue of most icons, only a few could not work, but I appreciate your help!
I think other icons (like Control center, etc) Will be right when you restart X ir Reboot your machine.
Uhm, Linux Mint has this problem too?
Well, you tried to edit it in cmd or with gui? These files are 644, so you only can edit it with super user (it's easier to do that with cmd). Futhermore, I think you should try to get rid of this glitchpeg.desktop file
OBS: update-desktop-database in this case is only for instantly change icons back to normal after edit them, some icons like control-center, software boutique, etc. could still have problem with icon, Restarting X or rebooting the whole system solves it.
great job! Works fine to me.
