Comment 14 for bug 452149

Interestingly , since the icons has been wrongly used everywhere , Gnome-icon-theme 2.30 will use the exact same icon as humanity.

Gnome-icon-theme devs believe , the problem[misrepresented delete icon ] is too wide spread , and too many apps use the wrong icon. hence they agree on this change :(

Marking this as a "wont fix" , for now , until apps use the proper icons.
