This issue should be pushed upstream and any known theme dev should be
warned about this behavior (ex: tiheum).
Personally, using Faenza (without reinstalling the mono theme), on UGR
12.10, I was able to link scalables back to the required file names like
so:
#!/bin/bash
# Icons #
color= reset=
if [[ -t 1 ]]; then
color=$(tput setaf 6)
reset=$(tput sgr0);
fi
actions_directory="/usr/share/icons/Faenza/actions/scalable"
applications_directory="/usr/share/icons/Faenza/apps/scalable"
categories_direectory="/usr/share/icons/Faenza/categories/scalable"
devices_directory="/usr/share/icons/Faenza/devices/scalable"
emblems_directory="/usr/share/icons/Faenza/emblems/scalable"
mimetypes_directory="/usr/share/icons/Faenza/mimetypes/scalable"
places_directory="/usr/share/icons/Faenza/places/scalable"
status_directory="/usr/share/icons/Faenza/status/scalable"
stock_directory="/usr/share/icons/Faenza/sock/scalable"
echo "${color}Customizing (icons)..."${reset}
# Categories #
cd "$categories_directory" || exit
ln -s "$devices_directory"/computer-symbolic.svg
"$categories_direectory"/preferences-desktop-peripherals-directory.svg
ln -s "$status_directory"/avatar-default-symbolic.svg
"$categories_direectory"/preferences-desktop-personal-directory.svg
ln -s "$places_directory"/start-here-symbolic.svg
"$categories_direectory"/preferences-system-directory.svg

Title:
GNOME Control Center category icons only work for Ambiance and
Radiance.
Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Status in “ubuntu-mono” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
gnome-control-center and ubuntu-mono are using some special icons for
category headers: preferences-desktop-peripherals-directory,
preferences-desktop-personal-directory, and preferences-system-
directory.
The -directory suffix was added to work around applications that are wrongly
using category icons instead of app icons:
https://code.launchpad.net/~agateau/gnome-menus/directory-suffix/+merge/91663
The problem is these icon names aren't standard: the standard icons
are those without the -directory suffix. This means any icon theme
which doesn't inherit from ubuntu-mono (perhaps with Adwaita or one of
the accessibility themes) causes System Settings to look really broken
and ugly. These special icons should be placed in the hicolor theme,
and perhaps provided by another package.
