Magic paths in Linux

These magic paths include,

Icon path-less filename

~/.local/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/xxx.{png,svg}

Tricks

Generally, you can find the path in /usr/share with find /usr/share -iname '*xxx*.ext' and then clone to ~/.local/share and creating folders if necessary. It will override the global paths.
