lxappearance, Available Icon Themes: empty list. [SOLVED]

It is some time that many icons disappeared from my desktop.
I am using lxde and I was happy with the default icon theme, but after an update many icons simply do not appear (or are completely transparent).
I say `many' because it is irregular: in the menu there are the icons of programs, but the icons of categories (Office, Games, ...) are not; as the Desktop icon of `My Documents' that does not appear.

Using lxappearance I see that the icon theme list is empty, but I am sure I have the default theme and another I tried to install:
$ pacman -Q | grep icon
hicolor-icon-theme 0.11-1
oxygen-icons-svg 4.4.0-1

Still no avail, do anyone had similar problems? I sought via google, but I found nothing really related.

I think you need to install lxde-icon-theme, because LXDE has split off into meta packages.

It worked fine, thanks a lot.
Moreover to anyone other: it seems lxde does not support svg at the moment.
