Package: libgtk2.0-bin
Version: 2.24.5-4
Version: 2.20.1-2
Severity: serious

/usr/share/icons/gnome/icon-theme.cache is not part of any package, but
according to gtk-update-icon-cache(1), it is a cache file generated by
gtk-update-icon-cache.

This behaviour violates the File Hierachy Standard, chapter 4: "[...]
/usr is [...], read-only data. That means that /usr [...] must not be
written to. Any information that is host-specific or varies with time is
stored elsewhere. [...]"

gtk-update-icon-cache should use /var/cache for such caches.
