Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/netblue30/firejail/issues/902

Using:

Debian 8.6
Firefox 49.0 (jessie-backports/debian-mozilla) (uses GTK3)
KDE 4 plasma-desktop
Widget style: Oxygen
Icon theme: Breeze
GTK2 Theme: Raleigh
GTK3 Theme: oxygen-gtk

A different (wrong) set of icons is used in a firejailed firefox.

To get the icons working, I had to add:
--whitelist=~/.kde/share/config/oxygenrc
--whitelist=~/.kde/share/config/kdeglobals

This also fixed "qpdfview" looking like crap when opened via firefox "Open with..."

Sidenote: I have my icon theme stored under /usr/share/icons/.... but some people might have them under ~/.kde/share/icons/..., so maybe that should be whitelisted as well?

Fixed. I added them in whitelist-common.inc, so the icons will be available in all programs. I also added ~/.kde/share/icons. Thanks.
