Bug description:
  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

  Upstream is setting these two options to false by default.
