The installer file installs without a hitch on my i686 Athlon, but still
fails on the DEC Alpha during the Icon Theme build. FYI, both computers 
are running Debian SID.

The following is from my Alpha install log:

!! Failed to install xfce4-icon-theme, see the errors above
!! for details on the problem.

In comparing the two logs I find this section from the Athlon log 
missing in the Alpha log. It follows immediately after the "test -z"
line.
