Add tray icon for "blueman" applet

The icon for bluetooth already exist in Humanity , not sure what the patch is for?

This could be solved with symlink to the existing icon.

Yes, in fact I simply linked bluetooth.svg to blueman.svg, but
the diff does not show symlinks.

Hmm.. ok , i need someone else to also confirm that
symlink blueman.svg -> bluetooth.svg within the 24px apps folder fixes this issue.

Does the icon show up in the system menu also [if one exists]? I dont want to add symlinks and break something else. I dont use blueman applet , so i can not confirm this from my end

You also need to regenerate the icon cache after doing the symlink.

Yes, blueman uses the same icon for the system menu, it's the same as
the standard bluetooth applet, so if you have the menu at 24px both
entries show the same icon. I think this is good (for consistency).

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.
Unfortunately, New panel greyscale icons cannot be added, as adding the greyscale icons will break apps.
The apps use the same icon for the panel notification area and the system menu.
So changing the icon to a greyscale icon will lead to the greyscale icon being displayed in the system menu.

Ideally we would like the app to be patched to use a different icon name for the notification area.
Until then fixing it in Humanity is not ideal.

When this issue is resolved kindly mention the new icon name to be used.

Kindly, assign the affected app using the "also affects project". So that the issue is resolved in the app side first. Thanks

[I'v done gnome-bluetooth as an exception since it is in the default install and was requested by the UX inspite of the system menu breakage]

fyi, blueman >= 1.21 uses "blueman-tray" for the notification area, and "blueman" for everything else.There's a package blueman-icon-humanity in blueman PPA with a greyscale icon.

Fix committed in latest rev
