Bug Description
[Impact]
* The package cannot be installed on bionic since the package that has been produced has the /usr/share/pixmaps as a file not as a folder.
[Test Case]
* Install the package on any Ubuntu flavour
[Regression Potential]
* None - the patch is a no change rebuild so fixes something that is fundamentally broken.
[Other Info]
* None
