The icon was already embedded and had been all along: `app.slint` sets it and `build.rs` compiles it into the binary with `EmbedFiles`. That is not what a Wayland compositor looks at. It ignores a client-set icon entirely, matches the surface's `app_id` against installed `.desktop` files, and takes the icon from the one whose basename agrees. Nothing set an app id and no desktop entry existed, so GNOME had nothing to resolve and drew the placeholder. Both halves are needed and neither substitutes for the other: the embedded icon is what X11 and the window itself use, and the desktop entry is what the overview, the dash and alt-tab use. The app id, the `.desktop` basename and the installed icon's filename are one string in three places — `paris.tourolle.darkroom`, the same reverse-DNS name the Android manifest already uses, because it is one application. Change one without the others and the icon disappears again with nothing logged, so each file says so where the string appears. The PKGBUILD builds from the checkout rather than a release tarball, so `makepkg -si` installs what is being worked on. Install verified by inspection of the built package: binary, desktop entry, and the icon under hicolor/256x256 by the name the entry asks for.

DarkRoom
A cross-platform, non-destructive RAW photo editor for Linux and Android.
Status: early. v0.1 is a remote library viewer — see docs/milestone-v0.1.md.

Building
Desktop:
cargo run -p darkroom-desktop
Android (containerised toolchain, see docker/android):
./docker/android/build.sh cargo ndk -t arm64-v8a build --release
Current state
Working: workspace, GPU context and compute pass, adaptive Slint shell, Android cross-compilation of the core crates.
Not yet working: the zero-copy display path. The build currently uploads frames through the CPU, which is exactly what ARCH §6.1 forbids — measured at 96% of frame time at 4K. Replacing it is spike S1, the project's highest priority.
cargo run -p dr-gpu --example bench --features readback
reproduces that measurement.
