Development

Bug reports, feature requests, help, patches, support and everything else are welcome on the Open Infrastructure Software Mailing List ( <https://lists.open-infrastructure.net/listinfo/software> ).

Please base patches against the 'next' Git branch using common sense ( <https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/SubmittingPatches> ).

Debian specific bugs can also be reported in the Debian Bug Tracking System ( <https://bugs.debian.org> ).

Known limitations

Changing from one icon set to the other requires a reload of the apache webserver.

Usage

The default icon theme is determined by the /usr/share/apache-icons/default (and /usr/share/apache-icons/default.conf respectivly) file.

On Debian based system "sudo update-alternatives --config apache-icons" can be used to automatically select the active icon theme (including the default apache icons).

The following themes are available:

•

awesome-png: Fork Awesome based, PNG format

•

awesome-svg: Fork Awesome based, SVG format

•

tango-png: Tango Icons based, PNG format

•

tango-svg: Tango Icons based, SVG format

The SVG themes are preferable because they are sharper and scale losless. Very old browser can not render SVG icons, use PNG if that is a concern.

An example of the tango-svg theme can be seen on
<https://get.open-infrastructure.net> .
