[Bug 1715213] Re: Adopt openSUSE patch that adds high-res icons for Firefox, so the Large Icons task switcher in KDE Plasma doesn't have an ugly Firefox icon

[Nate Graham]

** Description changed:

  Right now, Firefox in Ubuntu is packaged with a set of low-res icons.
- Because of this, is you use KDE Plasma with the Large Icons alt-tab task
+ Because of this, if you use KDE Plasma with the Large Icons alt-tab task
  switcher, the Firefox icons look ugly: https://i.imgur.com/LdL7wlM.png
  
  openSUSE packagers patch in larger icons, and so in openSUSE, they look
  sharp and crisp: https://i.imgur.com/Le8ZhWg.png
  
  I have opened a ticket with Mozilla, but it has been ignored:
  https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1371932
  
  So until they fix it upstream, we may want to consider adopting the
  openSUSE patch in Ubuntu:
- https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1057115
+ https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file/openSUSE:Factory/MozillaFirefox
+ /firefox-branded-icons.patch?expand=1
+ 
+ (I have also asked the openSUSE folks to upstream their patch, though I
+ don't have high hopes that Mozilla will take it:
+ https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1057115)
  
  This way, KDE Plasma users will get nice Firefox icons in their Large
  Icons alt-tab task switchers.
