Bug#296209: gnome-icon-theme: New postint script - gtk-update-icon-cache problems, results in 'blank' icons!

[Matthew Grant]

Package: gnome-icon-theme
Version: 2.8.0-2
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable


Upgrading from 2.8.0-1 results in all the icons in Nautilus turning to the
default 'blank page' icon, most of the icons in Evolution for email and folders
turn into red X crosses, and the show desktop icon in the panel going to a red
X cross as well.

Going back to the 2.8.0-1 version of the packkage fixed the problem for me.

Please fix this!  This bug is a major usability issues as it is not easy to 
tell if an email has an attachment, or whether a file is a directory or data!

Very off-putting to any Gnome user.

Is this a Powerpc only problem?  I don't think it is though
