new: x11/xfce4/adwaita-xfce-icon-theme

x11/gnome/adwaita-icon-theme contains the Hidden=true attribute in its index.theme file, for reasons attibutable to the upstream Gnome Project. This means that Adwaita does not appear as an 'Icon Theme' choice in non-gnome desktops such as Xfce in the Settings/Appearance dialog. Non-desktop x11 systems are also affected. On non-Gnome systems if applications use the Adwaita 'symbolic' icons (for exmaple) those icons will not appear. The attached port x11/xfce4/adwaita-xfce-icon-theme depends on x11/gnome/adwaita-icon-theme and adds some other icons used by Xfce. It installs to /usr/local/share/icons/adwaita-xfce and has Hidden=false in its index.theme I am unsure whether this should be in x11/ or x11/xfce4 category. Advice please. Comments/testing? Chris
