Public bug reported:

Steps to reproduce:

$ sudo apt-get install breeze-cursor-theme
$ update-alternatives --config x-cursor-theme
-> choose anything else than the default DMZ theme

Unity8 doesn't seem to find/parse the given cursor theme, log file
repeatedly shows the following for all cursor shapes it encounters:

CursorImageProvider: "left_ptr" not found, trying "default"
CursorImageProvider: "left_ptr" not found, trying "top_left_arrow"
CursorImageProvider: "left_ptr" not found, trying "left_arrow"
CursorImageProvider: couldn't find any cursors. Using the built-in one

As a result, the user sees only the one builtin cursor.

** Affects: unity8 (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Medium
         Status: Confirmed

** Changed in: unity8 (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided => Medium
