KDE icons are not used about qt-virt-manager HOT 4 OPEN

Application uses only own icon theme. it not designed for using another icon themes, because it contains very specific icon names. Using different icon themes will be broke the common style of icon set. Moreover, the application is cross-platform, so it will be difficult to achieve a single style. At the moment, using own set of icons is a working solution.

Hi @F1ash, thanks for all your work on qt-virt-manager.

Would you consider adding support for using the icons from the theme? You could even expose a user toggle that decided if the theme should be preferred.

Apart from your connection icon (the one that looks like a swan head, which I admittedly don't get), all the other icons are provided by most of the icon themes on Linux. So the change would come down to:

a) rename the existing icons to follow the freedesktop specification, and
b) use QIcon::fromTheme() to load the icons, which will automatically fall back to your application provided icons in case they don't exist.

I know all it... But OSX and Win not uses freedesktop standards.
It's easier if you wrote a list of icons that need to be replaced with more understandable ones (new names, for example, from oxigen icons of the theme or same).

Just FYI, I haven't forgotten about this but I simply haven't had the time yet.
