An additional datapoint for the GTK+2 package maintainer.  This may
also/instead relate to #518091.

After upgrading from gtk 2.12 to 2.14, all icons (both SVG and PNG)
were displayed as a page with a folded corner, in the center of which
was a square with a red cross.  In neither case was shared-mime-info
installed.  Upgrading to 2.16, which forced shared-mime-info to be
installed, caused icons to be displayed again.  The aptitude logs of
the upgrades follow.
