Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: unity

Install package avidemux (GTK version). Now run 'avidemux' in a
terminal. You get the wrong icon in the Unity launcher (a question
mark). Close Avidemux and try running 'avidemux2_gtk' in a terminal. Now
you get the correct Avidemux icon in the launcher.

The only difference between the avidemux and avidemux2_gtk commands is
symlinks:

% ls -l /usr/bin/avidemux*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root      26 2011-04-28 20:58 /usr/bin/avidemux -> 
/etc/alternatives/avidemux
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1903376 2011-01-18 00:03 /usr/bin/avidemux2_gtk
% ls -l /etc/alternatives/avidemux
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 22 2011-04-28 20:58 /etc/alternatives/avidemux -> 
/usr/bin/avidemux2_gtk

So they are both the same binary. It stands to reason that both commands
should produce the same icon in the Unity launcher.
