Comment(by azrael):
Pidgin doesn't follow the Freedesktop.org Icon Naming Spec:
http://standards.freedesktop.org/icon-naming-spec/icon-naming-spec-
latest.html
Pidgin needs to rename the icons it installs to match the names in the
icon-naming-spec. Then, it should use gtk_icon_theme_append_search_path()
to append its directory to the end of the path (on GTK+ 2.4 and above) to
provide the default icons if the user's theme doesn't define them. Then
icons should be loaded with gtk_icon_theme_lookup_icon() on GTK+ 2.4 and
above. (The fallback code can just load the icons from Pidgin's own
directory.)
