Without this patch, terminator's build script runs gtk-update-icon-cache which causes terminator package to claim /usr/share/icons/hicolor/icon-theme.cache as its own. To avoid that, gtk-update-icon-cache is run later, as part of xdg_pkg_postinst in the ebuild. --- a/setup.py 2009-08-12 22:22:53.000000000 -0400 +++ b/setup.py 2009-08-12 22:22:57.000000000 -0400 @@ -25,7 +25,7 @@ def __init__ (self, *args): self.without_gettext = False - self.without_icon_cache = False + self.without_icon_cache = True Distribution.__init__(self, *args)
