In the menu. Favorite and Applications.

Yes. In fact I have the following scheme:

~/.cache is a symlink to /tmp/sergio_cache/
~/.cache_persistent contains cache that should survive reboot (minidlna
and liferea for example as they are huge)

and

mkdir $(readlink ~/.cache)
ln -sf ~/.cache_persistent/* ~/.cache

in ~/.xsession


So, If I move correct efreet cache (after I press Application Theme ->
Icons, choose Adwaita icon theme) to ~/.cache_persistent all works fine.


But really all this doesn't matter as I've just reproduced this issue on
the new user profile, with empty e setting and no cache logic.

1. Just after the first logging in and answering configuration questions
   I see Pavucontrol icon in the application menu.
2. I press logout, switch to console (Alt-Ctrl-F1) and wait for the die
   of efreed.
3. In the .cache I see only efreed folder. I drop the whole folder or
   only icons_Adwaita_$HOST.eet, it doesn't matter.
4. Logging in again into e. The .cache/efreed folder is recreated,
   icons_Adwaita_$HOST.eet is present, but there are no icon for
   Pavucontrol in the application menu

Yes, my /tmp in on a tmpfs.
