Seems like bug 719861 might be the root cause of our recent icon issues
with software-center. If anyone who is currently experiencing this bug
could please answer these two questions it should verify that this is
indeed the root cause:
1. Are you running a fresh install of Natty? (seems so, looking at apport
info from dupes here and from bug 716111, seems like daily builds since
20110209 have the problem).
2. If you running the following command in a terminal, then restart, does the
problem disappear?:
sudo apt-get install libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 --reinstall
Please let us know your result if you are able to try this. And thanks!
Meanwhile, the next dev version of software-center should be out soon
and will prevent this crash. The good news is that software-center will
be much more robust from this point on for the case where icons cannot
be found. Certainly, it should never crash in this case.
Thanks again all!
