Solved XFCE (v.4.19 > v.4.20) & tor-browser (v.14 > v.15) changed icon to firefox.

After regularly updating the Tor browser from version 14 to version 15, the browser changed its logo (see screenshot).
Moreover, if you compare pixel by pixel (in GIMP), the Tor browser logo is smaller than the Firefox logo.
Everything has been updated to the latest versions.
XFCE, FreeBSD updated regularly starting from versions 4.19 and 14.2 respectively.
Now this pain in the ass has appeared: I can't tell the browsers apart when they are both open
and on the panel.

It looks like the desktop tor-browser icons (default*.png) have been updated (rebrand [1] ) on August 12, after the port was updated to 15.0.a1 on 08 Aug 2025.

Currently, at the time of this writing, these updates are not included in the src-firefox-...15.0-1-build3 (released 2025-07-30) from which the port is build from. A future tb-release src-firefox should include the icons.

Meanwhile, you could remove old icons, download [1] and add new icons under /usr/local/lib/tor-browser/browser/chrome/icons/default

T-Daemon, thanks!
These files were enough to restore the appearance.
