Icon/cursor themes in ~/.local/share/icons are not loaded

[mikoducky]

I added cursors to the same folder as on Elementary OS 5.1.7. I select the theme. It does not apply.

I've tried a few themes, so it appears to be user error or borked. The icon themes work fine.

Thanks for using Pantheon Tweaks on Odin!

Would you share the URL where you get that icon theme? I'd like to check if I can reproduce your issue on my system too.

Sure! Here's the two I've tried.

Hmm, seems like putting the icon theme in ~/.icons it works, but don't work in ~/.local/share/icons. I'll take a look at this.

Can confirm. I didn't even read the install info carefully because I did what Tweaks said to do lol

According to ArchWiki, cursors in ~/.local/share/icons is not loaded by default on Wayland. But elementary OS Odin is still running on X11.
