Some icons missing in Nautilus

  • 772

I've noticed that many icons are missing in my folder view, but have no idea when or how this happened. Here's the screenshot:

The icons that are missing are those from the sidebar and navigation bar, they are shown as a red missing sign on black background.

Any ideas how this happened and how to fix it?

    Re-installing the gnome-icon-theme-symbolic package did the trick. Thanks to the hint from this thread: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-946138-start-0.html

    From apt-cache show gnome-icon-theme-symbolic:

    Description-en: GNOME desktop icon theme (symbolic icons)
 This package contains a set of icons used by the GNOME desktop.
 The icons are used in the panel menu, and in nautilus and other
 applications, to represent the different applications, files,
 directories, and devices.
