Description:

nuoveXT2 is a great icon theme created by Alexandre Moore (saki).

This great icon set is adopted by the well-known lightweight desktop environment LXDE (http://lxde.org/) as its default icon theme. However, the original author saki doesn't seem to maintain this icon set anymore. Nor did he reply related mails. As the development of new freedesktop.org icon naming spec and gnome versions, some naming rules of icons have been changed and the original nuoveXT2 icon theme became broken. So I created this fixed version. This version is included in the latest release of LXDE, too.

Modifications done by me:
* Optimize for size. All duplicated images are detected and were replaced by symlinks.
* Icons are all renamed according to the latest freedesktop.org icon naming spec, so it can work well in the latest gnome.

Please install this icon theme with:
./configure --prefix=/usr
sudo make install

* NOTE: I'm not the original author of the icon theme. I just optimize saki's work, and fix all incorrect icon names. If there is anyone who know saki, please tell him that I fixed his icon theme. Thanks!

Fixing this icon theme is not quite easy. Although there exists icon-naming-utils, it only creates symlinks to old names for new icon and cannot map old names to new ones. So I wrote some programs myself to do the conversion. Duplicated image files are detected with the handy tool called fdupes. Thanks to its author. :-)

I have used this & its predecessor for a long time. To fix it I used 'Icon Theme Updater' available on this site.

Wanted to convert png -> svg as people say svg is faster? & even local icon themes like human & gnome use svg.
