Unfortunately, I don't have my own server. Let's see if Mandriva wants 
to put it on their Contrib repositories. Meanwhile, anyone can ask me 
for the binary (or even the modified source) rpm package.

OK. I will propose a patch replacing some icons with the ones in the 
Tango gallery.

The advantage of those is that their icons follow a  standard icon 
naming specification, which defines a standard name for icons with the 
similar purpose (as "Save to file...", "Open file..."). This allows to 
easily find and replace icons. This standard names are going to be 
followed by both KDE and GNOME.

Cheers,
