Title:
  Replace inline icon_data sent from the software-center-agent with a

Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  The inline icon_data that is currently being provided by the software-
  center-agent on the production server has been deprecated and must be
  removed from the Software Center client. Instead, the icon for
  packages provided by the agent should be downloaded directly using the
  icon_url field.
