So in other words, the actual command is valid. It works when run
from a command line but I can't seem to make it work from a perl
script :-(
FWIW this command sequence in my perl script seems to work!
use IPC::Run3;
my $output;
run3(["gtk-update-icon-cache", "--force",
"--ignore-theme-index", "--source", "builtin_icons", "gtk/stock-icons"],
\undef, "test.txt");
Does that seem like a reasonable solution? So far, I've only tested it
on Windows XP (one of the platforms where it wasn't previously
working). I'll need to re-test it on Win7 and Win8.
