Package: hicolor-icon-theme
Version: 0.13-1
Severity: normal

Updating from unstable today and got this:

=============================================================
dpkg: cycle found while processing triggers:
 chain of packages whose triggers are or may be responsible:

Errors were encountered while processing:

=============================================================

I'm afraid I don't understand the implications nor the possible causes,
being completely unfamiliar with hicolor-icon-theme.  It doesn't seem
to be immediately bringing about the end of the world.  :-)
