What am I doing wrong? From what I can see of the N900 filesystem, these icon locations already exist. I just want to stuff my icons there as well. Any help is greatly appreciated!Code:error creating directory `usr/share/icons/hicolor/26x26/apps': No such file or directory
are you sure the path isnt mistyped or a paste error ? ,
from the error you pasted it says
usr/share/icons/hicolor/26x26
its missing the / before usr ==> /usr/share/icons/hicolor/26x26
EDIT: Daniel was quicker with a shorter reply

Hi
I am having problems with icon locations for my package.
I am putting the 64x64 icons in /usr/share/icons/scalable/hildon.
I am putting the 40x40 icons in /usr/share/icons/hicolor/40x40/apps/
And the 26x26 are going into /usr/share/icons/hicolor/40x40/apps/
These lines are redundant in your desktop file:
X-Icon-path=/usr/share/icons Path to the icon
X-Window-Icon=maeflight
The system know where to find the icon if it uses the same name as the desktop file

Thank you for the responses. I adjusted my .desktop file per VDVsx's recommendation.
I am using PyPackager for the packaging, so AFAICT, I am not specifying the icon location 'usr/....'. I agree that it looks like it should be '/usr/....'.
With PyPackager, I have a 'make.py' file that provides all of the inputs required for the packaging. However, nowhere that I can see am I specifying the icon directories. I simply create that directory structure below 'src'. I am a little stumped. Where would I look to see why the '/' is missing from the path?

48x48 - Desktop shortcut.
64x64 - Menu icon.

Both of those links indicate that the directories in 'dirs file' do not start with a preceding '/'.
My dirs file matches those guidelines.
The icon shows up in the application menu, and when a desktop shortcut is made. But the icon does not show up in App Manager.

Do you have the XB-Maemo-Icon-26[1] field in your debian/control file ?
