This is already reported as #459261, blocked by this bug.

The packages installed on my machine which call dh_icons (just postinst) and thus call gtk-update-icon-cache if present: gimp-data.postinst:# Automatically added by dh_icons glipper.postinst:# Automatically added by dh_icons gthumb-data.postinst:# Automatically added by dh_icons libdjvulibre15.postinst:# Automatically added by dh_icons openoffice.org-common.postinst:# Automatically added by dh_icons sauerbraten.postinst:# Automatically added by dh_icons vinagre.postinst:# Automatically added by dh_icons But this caching problem shows me the reason of missing icons in the menu, too... and when it "fixed" itself...
