Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-icon-theme
Source package: gnome-icon-theme
Ubuntu release: 8.10 (but a damaged one with the wrong kernel)
Package version: 2.22.0-1ubuntu2 (I guess)
I expected this package to install without any problems.
Instead, it failed to install, and left behind an error report. Processing
this error report resulted in an automatic bug report which I am updating now.
