I guess you run Inkscape from the build tree without installing it.
Of course.
Regardless where you run Inkscape from, it looks for icons and other assets in the place it was installed. You need to install a daily build from after the change so that the icon files land in the appropriate places.
Pretty sure Inkscape's daily builds cannot be installed. (it's just a zip of the build dir, afaik).
Otherwise it won't work, just the way it wouldn't work if you built Inkscape and tried to run the built executable without having it installed in the regular location as well. I can put in some hacks to allow Inkscape to see the icons from the source tree, but this could make testing harder.
Inkscape never needed installing; let's keep it that way.

Hm, that complicates things. I think you'll need to overwrite icons.svg in Inkscape's system-wide icons directory with the current version for now. I'll add the search paths for in-source copies of those files soon (today or tommorow).

and what about Linux? it's broken too, after make install

Sorry... what do you mean with "icons.svg in Inkscape's system-wide icons directory"? Where should this "system-wide icons directory" be in Windows? Afaik every Inkscape directory tree has his own share\icons directory and there's no other "system-wide" place where such files are stored. I suppose that every Inkscape.exe executable looks under its working directory for all files it needs. Anyway, I've got the icon-missing problem also after updating my "system-official" installed copy with the last built.
Thanks. Luca

Now I don't know what is going on. You have to have an out-of-date icons.svg somewhere that has the old IDs for icons, because if the icons are not found in the theme it still uses icons.svg. I'll investigate this closer when I get home, but it works correctly for me.

On OSX 10.5 (Intel) with revision 20798 there are what appear to be icons but those are very blurry ... I have made a screenshot. Please view it here:

The same build system with revision 20663 shows the icons razor sharp.
Kind Regards

Looks like the blurry icon issue we were having for some time is hitting you hard. That's weird: the relevant section of code seems to keep separate prerenders for different sizes, but in reality only the first requested size is used. I'll try to figure this out. Thanks for reporting.
