[ubuntu-art] [Breathe] system-update-install

[Mateusz Traczyk]

Very nice observation skills. Even someone as myself with OCD and an eye for detail, did not notice the slightly wrong three dimensional perspective of the box. Even though as pointed out that's going to be hard to tell when the icon converted to 24x or 48x, it should still be corrected. Keep up the good work, everyone.
