Bug Description

Binary package hint: humanity-icon-theme

humanity-icon-theme fails to generate an icon cache:

$ sudo update-icon-caches /usr/share/icons/Humanity
gtk-update-icon-cache: The generated cache was invalid.
WARNING: icon cache generation failed for /usr/share/icons/Humanity

This happens on package installation, too, but with above command you can easily reproduce it. This was discussed in #ubuntu-desktop a bit, but the reason wasn't diagnosed quickly.

We never had an icon theme with a failing icon cache, so the impact of this is unknown and a potential stability/performance threat for Karmic. Therefore I make this a release critical bug.

Thinks should be corrected by removing the user-away -1.svg , Thanks to Jason for catching that... sorry for the confusion guys , the space in the file name was causing this! That file wasnt meant to be used in the packaging version.
Unluckily the snapshot package was taken without our knowledge... :(

Also , Several issues have been fixed in version 0.3.1 > so it would be better to use that for the icon.cache.
