Ugh...

The problem here is that the icons should *not* be in the tangerine theme. Putting them there means the right icons will show up (in the menus) for users of a) the tangerine theme and b) the human theme. But all other users (using gnome-icon-theme, tango-icon-theme or any other theme not based on tangerine) will never see the icon.

The solution is to either use icon spec names or let the synaptic package install the icon into hicolor, where every theme can access it. Is there a reason why you don't want to use the "system-software-install" icon provided by the icon spec? There's mo spec name for the update properties icon so that has to be shipped with the update manager's package.

Please, let's fix this bug.
