I installed R14 nightly builds on Debian 7 (Wheezy) a couple days ago, and
everything looks fine.  The NetworkManager icon was normal.  Then I
installed a few miscellaneous programs, and somewhere in that process the
icon turned into a little dot.  It looks like it did when I tried to install
the Squeeze version of NetworkManager on Wheezy, probably 2x2 pixels.  Any
ideas what might've done that?

After the point where I know it was working fine, I installed:
k3b
kuickshow
abiword
kcalc
ttf-mscorefonts-installer
bibletime
cpufrequtils
kima
klaptopdaemon
kmix
ntpdate
...and of course all dependencies for the above.

Thanks in advance for any help.
