** Description changed:

- The icons are missing from the context menus and dialogue buttons , since i 
updated :
+ The default setting for icons has now changed , the icons will not be shown 
unless forced upon by the app.
+ Icons that are essential must be displayed and need to be set accordingly in 
the app. 
+ If an icon is not displayed.This is a bug in the app. Kindly report it 
accordingly. And add a tag "menu-icons" to the bug report.
+ 
+ Reason for this change in the default : to have a cleaner , consistent
+ interface.
+ 
+ To have the icons displayed as was in the earlier versions of Ubuntu, 
Workaround:
+ - For menu icons : Appearances Preferences > Interface tab > Select "Show 
icons in menus"
+ - For buttons , In the gconf-editor, check this option:
+  /desktop/gnome/interface/buttons_have_icons
+ 
+ ---
+ The icons are not shown in the menus and dialogue buttons , since update :
  libgnome2-0 (2.26.0-1ubuntu1) to 2.27.5-0ubuntu1
- 
- I believe libgnome2-0 is the cause of the problem, because there was a 
mention of the Update default properties for menus_have_icons, 
buttons_have_icons in this change list:
- https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/karmic-changes/2009-July/005347.html
- 
- Workaround:
- In the gconf-editor, check these two options:
-  /desktop/gnome/interface/menus_have_icons
-  /desktop/gnome/interface/buttons_have_icons
  
  Upstream is setting these two options to false by default.
