Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install pitivi. 2. Run from terminal to see error. Actual results: Crash with message above. Expected results: To start correctly. Additional info:
IMHO, this is clearly a bug in adwaita-icon-theme (it removed an icon which is required by the freedesktop.org spec) and ought to be fixed there. Adwaita should either continue providing the colored versions of the icons or do what Breeze does and ship the symbolic version without the "symbolic" naming, so that applications not supporting this GTK extension to the spec also find the icons.
I agree with Kevin, but Kalev is on leave and I doubt he watches this Bugzilla instance closely anyway due to high volume of mail. I recommend reporting this upstream.

This is fixed in current release.
