Package: fontforge-common
Version: 20120731.b-5

fontforge-common package currently has this:

  $ dpkg -L fontforge-common | grep fontforge.png
  /usr/share/icons/24x24/apps/fontforge.png
  /usr/share/icons/16x16/apps/fontforge.png
  /usr/share/icons/48x48/apps/fontforge.png
  /usr/share/icons/32x32/apps/fontforge.png
  /usr/share/icons/22x22/apps/fontforge.png

However, per the specification [1], the applications icons should be installed
into ‘$prefix/share/icons/hicolor/*/apps’ directories (note the ‘hicolor’ part,
which is the fallback icon theme name).

With the current structure, implementations won’t find the icons, i.e.
QIcon::hasThemeIcon("fontforge") returns false.
