The script is buggy because it blindly assumes that everything found in /usr/share/icons/ is a directory. This is not true and actually there is no way to guarantee that ever. A slight modification: for dir in /usr/share/icons/*; do [ -d "$dir" ] || continue /usr/bin/gtk-update-icon-cache "$dir" done makes that script to run correctly although this leaves uncached files directly in /usr/share/icons/, I guess. Are there any problems with running simply /usr/bin/gtk-update-icon-cache /usr/share/icons The same buggy script is used also in packages gnome-themes and gnome-icon-theme. Should bugs be filed agaist these too or here is good enough? Please file bugs against them too. Bug #146661 notes the the same problem for gnome-themes package and for gnome-icon-theme bug #146496 was filed. |
