Public bug reported:

Setting and externally deleting an icon causes alacarte to crash when
editing that application.

Edit Applications > Gvim
Set /mnt/shared/icon-gvim.png as the icon
In Terminal, mv /mnt/shared/icon-gvim.png /mnt/shared/icons/icon-gvim.png
Accessories > Gvim > Properties

Actual:
Crash. Alacarte doesn't close, but the preferences window never opens and I get 
a "alacarte has crashed" popup window. Subsequent attempts to edit Properties 
of Gvim do nothing. Clicking Properties for other applications still works.

Expected:
Icon is automatically set to empty, loaded with a ? placeholder, or I get an 
error message with an option to clear the set icon.


Thanks for making a great gui for editing applications! It's nice to have a 
simple streamlined editor for customization.
