How to Install Papirus Icon Theme on Ubuntu

Changing the icon theme on Ubuntu is an easy way to give your desktop a new look and feel. In this post we show you how to install Papirus icons on Ubuntu from a PPA.

Why use the Papirus icon set? Because it’s good — in fact, it’s one of the best icon themes for Ubuntu not to mention other Linux distros like Linux Mint, Zorin OS, and Manjaro. Thousands of users use this set, and several Linux distributions ship it as their default.

What makes this impeccably well-made pack so popular is that is contains more than 1,000 individual app icons — and growing thanks to regular updates.

This full breadth of coverage includes cleverly-designed glyphs for a crop of the best Ubuntu apps, including Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, and VLC. Indie apps, Steam games, and even Windows software run through Wine is also supported.
