The problem is probably that you have installed an Ubuntu package or
some GNOME software from source with a --prefix of /usr, which has
created an icon cache at /usr/share/icons/hicolor/icon-theme.cache -
removing this file will fix the problem. Failing that, it could be
under /usr/local/.

This is not a grave bug in my opinion, because it was caused by
installing unsupported software - it is not something that all Debian
f-spot users see. However, f-spot should really display a 'missing icon'
image instead of crashing. I mentioned this to upstream, and they will
not fix it themselves (to be fair, it doesn't affect them, because their
install scripts always regenerate the icon cache).

Hope that explains things. Perhaps you would be willing to write a patch
for this problem?
