Description
If you select a different default icon than appicon.png, only that icon (and its retina version) will be listed in the generated Info.plist.
Steps to reproduce
Create new app: titanium create -p ios -n testIcons --id test.icons -d .
Extract the attached icons.zip to the project's Resources/iphone folder.
Remove the default (on iPad *not* required) Resources/iphone/appicon.png.
In tiapp.xml change <icon>appicon.png</icon> to <icon>appicon-76.png</icon>.
Build the app for iPad: titanium build -b -p ios -F ipad
Open build/iphone/Info.plist
See that only the retina and non-retina version of the 76 icon are listed under CFBundleIconFiles.

This is not quite how this feature is designed to work. The
<icon>in thetiapp.xmlwas introduced before there was retina screens and before Apple added additional app icon sizes to the design guidelines. All<icon>does is simply identifies the .png image to use. Titanium's iOS build will handle injecting the suffix into the icon filename. In other words, when you specify "appicon-76.png", it's actually looking for "appicon-76-76.png", "appicon-76-83.5@2x.png", etc. Regardless, this ticket has become invalid as we have moved to using the iOS asset catalog for icons and while the iOS build will generate all missing app icons when creating the asset catalog, it no longer sets the CFBundleIconFile in the Info.plist.Closing ticket as invalid with reference to the previous comments.
