Christopher Aillon brought up a problem in the current icon code for PackageDB. It seems that mozilla is sensitive to the icon that is associated with the firefox web browser. So we shouldn't be showing icons other than the default or hicolor icon set for firefox or risk trademark repurcussions.
I've removed the other icons from the pkgdb for now but newer packages with icons for firefox that get imported into the database could potentially occur at any time.
Martin Bacovsky has a small patch for pkgdb that prioritises the themes that are used when choosing an icon. That should be enough to always choose a proper icon for displaying alongside firefox.
Could I get two +1s for applying this to the app servers?
I don't see this as harmful.
+1

Got a second +1 from lmacken on IRC as well as discussion between dgilmore and caillon about the issues surrounding this. Change applied to app and bapp servers.
