Bug Description

There's a new icon for the Ubuntu Software Center.

While testing gnome-shell I noticed it was not using the new icon. It was using the old icon instead.

"dpkg -L software-center" showed me all the icons installed by the software-center and one of the icon files is still the old one. I don't know if it's suppose to be there or the developers forgot to update it but it should show the new one.

/usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/softwarecenter.svg is still using the old Software Center icon, it should be updated to reflect the new one.

I replaced that icon file (the wrong one) with on of the other svg's and that fixed it (after a gnome-shell restart).

Notes:

* The left panel in Activities, the one with the shortcuts, apparently caches the icons, reason why I had to restart gnome-shell. The application finder tab did refresh the icon.

* Also, this is why launchpad report says I have a modified file in the package.

I had the same issue.

I fixed it by coping the icon "/usr/share/icons/hicolor/128x128/apps/softwarecenter.svg" over the "/usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/softwarecenter.svg" icon.
