Bug Description

[ FWIW, I set the package option above to elementary-icon-theme. ]

I installed this theme as I usually do, and when I went to select it there was a warning that the theme did not have an icon cache. I first followed the instructions to run 'gtk-update-icon-cache /usr/share/icons/elementary' however I got an error saying that the file existed. (I used sudo even though the instructions did not include that bit.) When I removed the file and re-ran the command I got an error saying "The generated cache was invalid."

The theme seems to work in spite of this, but I wanted to mention it in case it's important.
