Review request for Calligra and KDE Software on Mac OS X.


Changes
-------

Give calligraworkplan an app icon too.


Repository: calligra


Description
-------

Hinted at in my previous RR: this patch concern the generation of app icons on Mac \
and potentially on MS Windows.

Several points:

- The `iconutils` utility is limited or incorrectly invoked by `ecm_add_app_icon`, \
                leading to errors on OS X 10.9 when using PNG files larger than \
                256x256px . 
- `ecm_add_app_icon` takes care of copying the icon (.icns) file into the app bundle; \
                no need to install it explicitly
- a recent change I committed to the ECM allows `ecm_add_app_icon` to accept an SVG \
(or SVGz) file, and will create the app icon using that file if the `ksvg2icns` \
utility is available (provided by KIconThemes so it should always be available).

I hope that this modification will be released with ECM 5.30.0 . The ECM being what \
they are there should be no issue requiring its latest version, but the changes in \
the present patch will be transparent with older ECM versions (except for warnings \
about ignoring unsupported icon source files).

There is an equivalent `svg2ico` utility in the KDEWin project which also provides a \
`png2ico` implementation. I plan to propose an updated version for inclusion with \
KIconThemes. That would allow feature parity for `ecm_add_app_icon` on MSWin, but I \
would need someone else to test it (I don't have a MSWin dev system).

Words.
