Load iconsets not only from /usr/share/gajim/data/iconsets

[anonymous]

It would be nice to be able to extract iconsets to something like ~/.gajim/iconsets and not only to /usr/share/gajim/data/iconsets.

With emoticons it's possible already, at least I'm told here: http://trac.gajim.org/wiki/GajimCommunityArt.

I tried to do a patch for this, by just copying code from the emoticons loading. I don't know where this MY_EMOTS_PATH is defined. In the place where this is done MY_ICON_PATH could be added.

It's a diff against the latest nighlty built (gajim-2007-08-01) and is not complete but perhaps it can speed up the process of fixing this.

This is useful and easy to fix, but does not have a high priority for now. For sure a patch would be applied instantly.

blarz, you are on a good way and if you have any questions just ask. Where my comments in MUC useful or do you need any more info about MY_EMOTS_PATH?

Working diff for loading iconsets from ~/.gajim/iconsets/

[blarz]

So, with help from steve-e and Asterix (thanks for your kind help, guys!) I present a first shot at this "problem". Works for me so far.

I guess the transport icons are still loaded only from /usr/share/gajim/iconsets... I can fix that.
