Description miles 2013-06-23 21:31:31 UTC
Instead of the official LibreOffice "document" icon the 4.1RC1 has a default OSX app icon (a piece of paper with a pen and stencil crossed over a meter, forming the A letter in its bottom right part).
This is normal for beta versions, but should not be the case with RC versions, as they install as regular releases.
Comment 1 Jorendc 2013-06-23 21:55:36 UTC
I can confirm this behavior using Mac OSX 10.8.3 with LibreOffice 4.1.0 and current master.

Maybe to 'trivial' to ping a developer for this one, but doesn't look professional. I'll have a look later this week.

Kind regards,
Joren

Comment 6 miles 2013-07-04 10:10:52 UTC
So this will not make it to 4.1.0?
I see it as a stopper, because it really looks unprofessional on an OSX desktop and in the app bar. Could it be re-iterated to consider it as a 4.1.0 stopper bug?
Comment 7 Emir Sarı (away) 2013-07-04 10:43:23 UTC
This should be a stopper for 4.1.0. Key marketing error: Shipping a product without icon. 

Joren, what do you think?

Well, actually I agree with the marketing fact. Although it's just an icon, it doesn't look that professional. As always a major release is always a quite big 'event' and news wide spread in the media. Releasing a version without "brands" is for me a no-go. Don't know about the development "to-do" (don't know how long it takes to create an extra branch/...).

Branch 4.1.0.2 branch is created 2days ago?/yesterday? Maybe it's possible to skip RC2 and create RC3 at once?
@Petr, Christian: what do you think?

Kind regards,
Joren

Well if there is a RC3 that's fine. Or if the icon now is def in the final release.

Have been wondering since RC1 where the icon is. :P

Good to see it's back (and sad it missed RC2 by a day or two).
Comment 11 Christian Lohmaier 2013-07-04 14:25:40 UTC
@jordenc not possible to skip rc2 as that one was already prepared (tag created and pushed, builds already building/partly done,...)

but there is rc3 planned in two weeks from now, so please double-check in rc3
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleasePlan/4.1

IMHO it is not good to skip rc2, as that would mean missing lot of feedback. But I'll add a comment to the release-notes wiki page

Oh, wasn't aware of the fact there will be a RC3 (for major release).

Yes, indeed. In this case (3 RC's) it makes sense not to 'skip' a RC and follow the original release schedule.

Thanks for your feedback, and thanks Norbert for the patch!
Kind regards,
Joren

Great work, guys. Thanks!
Comment 16 Lucian 2013-11-13 07:49:16 UTC
The problem still exists in LibreOffice version 4.1.3.2. Seen in both OS X 10.8 and 10.9.
Comment 17 foss 2013-11-13 12:55:52 UTC
Hi Lucian,

I cannot confirm your report. Please open a separate bug for this problem. But I highly doubt this is still a problem. Did you try re-downloading the latest stable release of LO and re-install that under OS X 10.9?

LO 4.1.3.2 and 10.9 running fine here. Icon looks sweet.
