There is "fedora-icon-theme" package, which looks strange a

Since F13 it no more contains any files at all (just directories), ie.
it looks like a meta-package.
OTOH its source rpm still has full tarball with png icons etc.
What is a reason for such design? (I'm just curious).
Since you've had a look at the src.rpm already, you could have found
out yourself by examining the spec file and by trying to make sense
out of the %changelog entries (which admittedly aren't too clear).
The package does includes files, such as /usr/share/icons/Fedora/index.theme
and that one currently only Inherits=Mist which is a GNOME theme.
