Bug Description
SRU TEST CASE:
This crash only occurs in certain configurations and so may not be directly reproducable. It is enough to verify that the updated version always works correctly.
1. Update to the version of software-center in precise-proposed.
2. Launch Ubuntu Software Center from the command line as shown:
$ software-center
3. Click on the "History" toolbar button.
4. Verify that the history view is displayed correctly and that the crash shown below does not occur.
SRU REGRESSION POTENTIAL:
Regression risk is negligible. Fix just tightens a dependency on the needed icon theme.

How can I fix it in my elementaryOS system? I've tried updating from precise-proposed, but I get the 'Release 'precise-proposed' for 'software-center' was not found.
The attached branch fixes it in one way. There are more ways we can do it.
Another one would be to include the needed icons into: "data/emblems/" and ship them as part of s-c. This requires
that we have the icons with the right copyright (i.e. with copyright assignment). If we can use the ones from the humanity-icon-theme I can add them and would actually prefer this approach.
