Dear Maintainer,

After a recent upgrade, during which I also removed lxde after having switched
to cinnamon, some of the menu buttons in Okular (show sidebar, zoom in, zoom
out) do not display -- it just looks like empty spaces in the menu, however the
buttons *are* there and functional, hovering over them still shows the tooltip.

I'm pretty sure this has to do with the icon theme, but I haven't been able to
find one where the buttons reappear. I tried reinstalling lxde, installing all
packages that seem to be related to the adwaita theme, but to no avail.

I also tried a new user, figuring that probably something in my user's configs
were messed up, but the problem exists also for a new user with a clean home
directory...

I do not know whether the problem exists in a new, from scratch,
installation...

Thanks!
Dov

Adding a screenshot that shows the problem. Note that the mouse was hovering over the "zoom in" button, and so the tooltip is displayed.

You should see if installing qt6-svg-plugins resolves your issue.

Yes, thank you, that solved it!

I now see that okular depends on libqt6gui6, which, in turn,
recommends qt6-svg-plugins. A couple of questions regarding that:
1. Should that" recommends" perhaps be made a hard dependency? (I
don't know enough about the framework to understand if that would make
sense or not).
2. Is there any way for me to search recursively for such missing
recommendations of a given package, or of the dependencies of a given
package?

Thanks!
Dov
