Maybe stating the obvious here, but have you tried to remove and then install gnome-icon-theme again?

Happy new year all !!!
Try : "pkg-config gnome-icon-theme --modversion" if that reports a wrong number then you may have an old pkgconfig file lying around making it go nuts. For some odd reason i notice the gnome-icon-theme package-config files not being in their standard /usr/lib/pkgconfig but in /usr/share/pkgconfig with about 2 other files ( gtk-doc , icon-naming-utils ) and I wonder why. But cat any flles matching "gnome-icon-theme.pc" in both those dirs and if you have more than one, then that could be your problem, and deleting the older one -should- do the trick. -- /<ent Fredric (aka theJackal) -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
