Icons in Hoary ... strange behavior

[Olafur Arason]

A quick fix is to download 
http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/h/hicolor-icon-theme/hicolor-icon-theme_0.5-3_all.deb
and 
sudo dpkg -i hicolor-icon-theme_0.5-3_all.deb
then go to system->preferences->theme and change the theme to something 
and then back to your theme.
The bug report is here:
https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=6798

This is a really annoying bug

If you have some kind of automatic update then you can lock the version by
going to synaptic and then going to package->lock version
... until they fix it.
