[Libreoffice-ux-advise] [Bug 98141] SVG application icons too large/detailed

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=98141

--- Comment #3 from Yousuf (Jay) Philips <philipz85@hotmail.com> ---
Looking in /usr/share/icons/hicolor/, libreoffice provides raster icons for
16x16, 32x32, 48x48, 128x128, 256x256, and 512x512, which can be utilized by
application launchers.

So i checked the application launchers from different desktop environments to
see what they utilized.

16x16: LXDE
22x22 or 24x24: Gnome 2, Mint Mate, XFCE
28x28: KDE 5 (all their icons are breeze)
32x32: KDE 4, Gnome 3 Launcher (might be different at different resolutions)
48x48: Unity Launcher
64x64: Unity
96x96: Gnome 3

Only Gnome 3 seemed like it was processing the SVGs as likely it was searching
for raster versions in the 96x96 folder, but it only rendered them once and
then cached the result.

So how i see it is that we should include 22x22, 24x24, 64x64 and 96x96 raster
icons in our linux packages so that launchers dont have to scale down larger
raster versions (this is happening in Ubuntu Mate -
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mate/+bug/1551029) and newer full screen
launchers dont have to render the svg.
