Are these the icons which are licensed under a GPL-incompatible license?
What's the status of that?

No objections, but with the following pre-conditions:

	1) debian allows the reuse of a package name, 
	2) it would be possible to reuse the geda package name for
	   a front-end, should a suitable replacement ever materialize,
	   and
	3) all content is properly licensed under the GPL.

	Please check with Hamish and get his two cents.  These icons
and such do not really belong in libgeda, but there might be a debian
reason why they should go into libgeda-common
