Remove /usr/share/icons/hicolor/icon-theme.cache. Debian does not ship such caches; either it's a bug in another Debian package (grep gtk-update-icon-cache /var/lib/dpkg/info/*.postinst, dpkg -S icon-theme.cache), or you used third party packages, or you installed software from source in /usr/share/icons. I don't think I did anything like the above... The icon-theme.cache must have come one way or another on your system. Either it was in a package, or it was created by a package or a script. However, you can easily tell whether it was in a package with dpkg -S icon-theme.cache and whether it was created by a Debian package by grepping for gtk-update-icon-cache: $ grep gtk-update-icon-cache /var/lib/dpkg/info/*.postinst /var/lib/dpkg/info/gnome-accessibility-themes.postinst: gtk-update-icon-cache /usr/share/icons/$theme /var/lib/dpkg/info/gnome-themes.postinst:gtk-update-icon-cache /usr/share/icons/$theme These two are okay, since the caches are for *private* directories, and not for /usr/share/icons/hicolor. So, there's nothing more I can do to help you locate when the icon-theme.cache file was created; it's not a bug in the package you filed the bug against, and neither you nor me can find another package doing this. I suggest you remove the file, and file a bug report against whatever creates the file the next time when you reproduce the problem. I doubt this is in a Debian package, but I could be wrong. -- Loïc Minier [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Have you received my response? I attach it for reference. Should I file a bug to some other package, or will you take care of it?
