Hi

I use Dolphin under Lubuntu 11.04 64bit. 

I tried to change the standard Icon theme to nuoveXT2.2 for KDE (from kde-look), but Dolphin is ignoring it. 
I even installed package "systemsettings" and tried to set the Icon theme there but it won't work either. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Install Dolphin
Install systemsettings
systemsettings > install Icon theme
systemsettings > set Icon theme

Actual Results:  
keeps showing oxygen theme

Expected Results:  
shows nuoveXT theme

Git commit 8c121a63a6823ebf77d882b745462472a3b17bdf by Michael Pyne.

Pushed by mpyne into branch 'KDE/4.8'.

Delete cached icons in-memory when changing icon theme.

This should hopefully fix bug 294044 ("Dolphin won't accept custom
icons"), although I can only partially reproduce it. I was able to
verify that icons left in the KSharedDataCache for running processes are
preferred without checking the new theme, which this patch fixes.
FIXED-IN:4.8.4
