rm'd /etc/xml/catalog (under advice that it was probably a generated file) This filex the problem and the icon theme installed. Now the question is, why was an empty catalog file such a problem? What program created the problematic empty file?
it emerged fine on amd64 without this bug. i thing it's fixed.
Let's mark this as fixed for now.
still there on x86 removing the catalog fixes the problem (it might be a good thing at least to insert that rm into the ebuild).... (In reply to comment #3) > Let's mark this as fixed for now. >
Please reopen. I can confirm that the problem still exists here on x86 with x11-themes/gnome-icon-theme-2.22.0 rm /etc/xml/catalog did the trick.
