Do the same for Windows. Saves us from:

  • Installing thousands of tiny files during installation (super slow on Windows file systems (NTFS))
  • Stat'ing lots of files during startup (slow as well)

Kate fetches breeze icons from git repo and uses them with rcc. How would we do this in CMake?

Lets just ask user for BREEZE_DIR and then run rcc on it?

kfunk assigned this task to arrowd.

Binary icons resources are now installed by breeze-icons https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/127911/

Note: Still needs to be incorporated into the KDevelop package on Windows (I suggest checking what exactly Kate is doing)
