Well, there are other packages installing different sizes.  Installing
all sizes besides kingicon-orig.png costs less than extra 13kB.  IMHO no
need to spend some real thought on it.

I'm not that deep into desktop optimisation that I could say. I just was
looking into my /usr/share/pixmap and found several icons in different
sizes - so what?

Well, Debian Menu wants exactly 32x32 xpm (I admit it is a bit
restricted, yes.)  So if you really think I should only provide a single
resolution - that's fine for me.  Just tell me and I will specify only
kingicon-orig.png.

Thanks for your hints that are very welcome

       Andreas.
