I have to respectfully disagree.

The directory is not owned just by the hicolor-icon-theme package It happens to
need it in place and so do I. RPM allows two packages to ship the same
directory specifically for this. This is a common practice.

That is also what the packaging guidelines suggest:

  Please also note that it is not uncommon for multiple packages to provide the
same directory. [1]
