A major update to the phenomenally popular Paprius icon set for Linux desktops is now available.
Papirus’ September 2023 update adds a bunch of new and updated glyphs, including redesigned icons for LibreOffice that riff on the suite’s own recent icon revamp.
Among the newly added apps supported in Paprius v20230901:
Additional file/document types are catered for as of this update, with .hwp, .Julia, and .vue among them. If you regularly work with or download these files you’ll appreciate seeing bespoke representations for them in your file manager.

For once I don’t need to download the latest Papirus source, search for the updated icons, drag a bunch of them in my image editor, and then arrange them into a half-way representational graphic to “showcase” the update here.
Why?
Because Papirus’ devs have done it for me themselves:
Lovely stuff – the new LibreOffice icons look particularly nice.
Get the Paprius Icon Pack
You can download Paprius from Github. The icon set is compatible with most major Linux distros and desktop environments, including KDE Plasma and its monochromic KDE colorscheme icons. You can, as always, request icons to be added for apps now currently covered via the Github.
Want to install Paprius on Ubuntu from an official PPA? You can. The Paprius PPA lets you install the icon pack quickly and ensures you get automatically updates to new versions as and when released. Better still, the Papirus PPA supports 18.04 LTS through 23.10.
