Package: gnome-menus
Version: 2.28.0.1-3+b1
Severity: minor

I recently switched to squeeze from lenny. In lenny, gnome had icons for: 
Connect to Server, Search for Files and Recent Documents (in Places menu). Also 
for the submenus Preferences and Administration as well as for Help, About 
Gnome, lock screen, log out and shutdown (all in the System menu).

In Squeeze there are NO icons for any of these features listed above. They confer 
gnome a nice look.

Please consider the problem although it's purely cosmetic

This is intentional. This can be configured with
the /desktop/gnome/interface/menus_have_icons GConf key.

Icons were disabled in all menus and buttons, as a result of a UI study,
in the 2.28 release.

Oh I see. Thanks, this works for me. But why is this disabled by default? is
it buggy or something?
