Hi,
I just upgraded one of my CentOS 7 + GNOME desktops from the CR repo. After the upgrade, it seems like all of the icon themes are broken. Missing icons everywhere.
Any idea what's going on here ?
Cheers,
Niki

As a follow-up question : is it possible to roll back the update made from the CR repository? Sort of a downgrade to the official CentOS 7.5?

The recommended method for undo an update is https://access.redhat.com/solutions/64069, but it's not supported if glibc, kernel, or selinux are changed. I'd give it a try if the system is not critical. Make backups first.
Some other people's experience on downgrading a point release: https://access.redhat.com/discussions/2933711
If you couldn't read that article, just search "yum history undo".

That didn't work unfortunately. The lesson learned here is :
* CR repository works great for servers
* never use it to upgrade a desktop

I used it on all my desktops .. they work great for me .. is your desktop Gnome/KDE for something from EPEL or Nux?

Issues for me as well doing this CR upgrade yesterday.
Two particularly upsetting though I have not investigated yet:
* the normal boot menu doesn't appear. The back up kernels and setup may have actually been removed. I need to look into this.
* My console font is now HUGE!
Likely due to a bad X server init which set display at like 640 x 360 or something.
Gnome desktop.
Maybe more to come as I look into this a bit more today.

Good news on the above. With new updates pushed today, my boot menu is back. \o/ This saved me digging into grub2 setup. So thank you.
- My console font is now HUGE!
This is still the case, but I'm sure I can deal with this.

I may be misunderstanding what you mean by icon themes but I have upgraded 2 systems (1 multiple times) and all my icons are there and seem to be working. I am trying to figure out how I missed the problem.
Do the icons show up if you have a new user? Do the icons say they are missing files and what files are they missing?
Thanks.
