[GNC] Upgrading GC under Ubuntu

I think there is a problem with the cmake creation of the scripts that do
the install, that is not installing the icons correctly. I just did an
uninstall of v3.2 on Ubuntu, deleted any gnucash files left in my install
location (/usr/local) relating to gnucash so that all directories had to be
recreated and there were no existing files to cause any problems, then did a
reinstall.  The procedure (sudo make install) reported that it was
installing the icons in /usr/local/share/gnucash/icons/hicolor/... etc. but
when I check the locations it has claimed to install files to, there are
only empty directories and no files in them. The output from the terminal
for that section of the install is below. I am not too sure what the
"Up-to-date" note means but no png files end up in those locations on my
system. See attached  screenshot of /usr/local/share/gnucash taken after the
above install below

Like Stephen Gnucash seems to be working fine in spite of this in my case.
Despite the icons not being there, they are being used in GnuCash. I have
explicitly checked the post/unpoost invoice and create, edit, duplicate
invoice icons and they are present and working. Definitely very strange
unless the icons are built into the program and are only in the share
dircectory for reference or some historical purpose. I will try and chack
further when i have a bit more time.
