Public bug reported:

Could you please remove old libgtk2-perl from Recommends and drop the
dependency against gnome-icon-theme?

libgtk2-perl and gnome-icon-theme is deprecated for gtk3 and replaced by 
adwaita-icon-theme.  
If I'm not wrong, gdebi only uses one icon from gnome-icon-theme, 
gnome-mime-application-x-deb, this icon is not available in adwaita-icon-theme. 
BUT, can be replaced by the package-x-generic (which is also available in other 
icon themes). On my machine this is the same icon as for the .deb and .udeb 
files. An explicit dependency against adwaita-icon-theme should probably be 
avoided as libgtk3 will already pull it.
