Bug Description

Binary package hint: gcolor2

The current about button in Gcolor2 is not using the standard GTK Stock icon for about, it is using an external pixmap (/usr/share/pixmaps/gcolor2/about_icon.png. This makes gcolor look very out of place when using different icon themes and so needs to be sorted out.

After looking into the code, the About button is actually a GTK label and image, inside of a container, rather than a simpler GTK Stock Button. Either the GTK image needs to be replaced with the Stock about icon, or the whole button needs ot be converted to a GTK Stock About button (much cleaner)

patch :) Edit (1.7 KiB, text/plain)

This very short patch should fix it. My C in kind-of rusty, it seems to work.
