Due to a bug in apport's method for creating a duplicate signature, the DuplicateSignature in this report was incorrect. We are fixing that now, sorry for the noise!

[Joseph Salisbury (jsalisbury)]

You may need to run the following from a terminal:

sudo apt-get install -f
sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get update

Then re-install the package or updates.

If that does not resolve your issue, please mark the bug as "Confirmed"

Hi Joseph

I have a script that runs the commands you suggest

Not only was this a fresh install but I have flickering icons from time
to time !

Appears this standalone install may have some more bugs beside this one !

Thanks Raoul
