Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: humanity-icon-theme

/usr/share/icons/Humanity/categories/48/applications-electronics.svg

This icon is unintelligable at the menu size - you can only make out the
spaner, and what on earth does a spanner have to do with electronics
anyway?

Although pretty minimalist, what is wrong with the electronics category
icons (various sizes) installed by the "extra-xdg-menus" package?

They use a couple of electrical component symbols as the metaphor, and are 
easily recognisable in all size renderings.
(Full disclosure - I drew them, but I'm not particularly attached to them... I 
just think the Humanity icon is poor).

** Affects: humanity-icon-theme (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
