Youtube-music-bin icons on XFCE

[JesusLinux]

Hello
I installed Youtube music form AUR:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/youtube-music-bin

However the icon show a generic icon on workspaces and top rleft side of the app window.
On the Whisker menu and as a panel launcher the right icon appear.
How do I change this?

• Generic icon on workspace on the right:

• Generic Icon on top left in Window app:

• The correct icon on panel launcher and whisker menu:

Thanks

Hello @JesusLinux

I guess the maintainer forgot to add the icons at /usr/share/icons/hicolor/.

These ones must be added from the appimage:

/usr/share/icons/hicolor/1024x1024/apps/youtube-music.png 
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/24x24/apps/youtube-music.png
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/youtube-music.png
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/128x128/apps/youtube-music.png
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/256x256/apps/youtube-music.png
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/512x512/apps/youtube-music.png
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/16x16/apps/youtube-music.png
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/32x32/apps/youtube-music.png
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/64x64/apps/youtube-music.png

[JesusLinux]

Thank you for your answer Sir.

How do I do that?

[megavolt]

Download the appimage, make it executeable and run:

<name>.AppImage --appimage-extract

Then just copy the *.png’s to the correct folder as root.

And sure, also change at the *.desktop file the icon file to youtube-music.

BUT better would be modifying the PKGBUILD and add it there and make the package again and install it.

[JesusLinux]

Oh well…I don’t know how to do that Sir…
I am not fluent in Linux

[megavolt]

This PKGBUILD should work:

pkgname=youtube-music-bin
_pkgname=YouTube-Music
pkgver=1.11.0
pkgrel=1

        "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/th-ch/youtube-music/master/license"
        "youtube-music-bin.desktop")
noextract=('${_pkgname}-${pkgver}.AppImage')
options=(!strip)
sha512sums=(
            "SKIP"
            "SKIP"
            "SKIP"
)

prepare(){
	chmod +x $_pkgname-$pkgver.AppImage
	./$_pkgname-$pkgver.AppImage --appimage-extract
}

package() {
	# install license
	install -Dm644 license "${pkgdir}/usr/share/licenses/${pkgname}/license"

	# install icon
	install -Dm644 "${srcdir}/squashfs-root/youtube-music.png" "${pkgdir}/usr/share/pixmaps/youtube-music-bin.png"

	install -Dm644 "${srcdir}/squashfs-root/usr/share/icons/hicolor/32x32/apps/youtube-music.png" "${pkgdir}/usr/share/icons/hicolor/32x32/apps/youtube-music.png"

	# install appimage
	install -Dm755 ${_pkgname}-${pkgver}.AppImage "${pkgdir}/usr/bin/youtube-music-bin"

	# install desktop entry
	install -Dm755 youtube-music-bin.desktop "${pkgdir}/usr/share/applications/youtube-music-bin.desktop"
}

and this is the desktop file (youtube-music-bin.desktop):

[Desktop Entry]
Name=YouTube Music
Comment=YouTube Music Desktop App - including custom plugins
GenericName=YouTube Music
Exec=youtube-music-bin %U
Icon=youtube-music
Terminal=false
Type=Application
StartupNotify=true
StartupWMClass=YouTube Music
Categories=AudioVideo;Player;Audio;Youtube;Music

Put both in one folder. Open a terminal, cd to that folder and type: makepkg -si

Sorry, can’t test it since i am using DWM at the moment. Hope it works for you

[JesusLinux]

How do I put that in one folder?
Sorry…this is way to complex…
I don’t know how to build packages…

[megavolt]

@JesusLinux

How do I put that in one folder?

Create a text file, call it PKGBUILD, and put the first content in it. Then create a second text file call it youtube-music-bin.desktop and put the second text into it. These 2 files have to be in one folder.

then type cd ~/my_created_folder and type makepkg -si.

@JesusLinux

Sorry…this is way to complex…

Sorry, i can’t make it easier for you to fix this …

[JesusLinux]

I think I was able to build the package but the same issues persists

Package build:

[megavolt]

Try to run the AppImage directly. Make it executable and run it. Same issue?

[JesusLinux]

Yes, it’s the same.
