Wrong icon for ODT on Ubuntu

Installation on Ubuntu 16.04:
Ubuntu comes with LibreOffice installed. So I purge all packages first.
Then I install all DEBs in "DEB" and additionaly all DEBs in "desktop-integration".

Problem:
I can double-click on an ODT-File and OpenOffice opens the file. I can do a right click and it offers me OpenOffice Writer.
BUT the icon for the ODT-file is still the one from LibreOffice. (see attachment).

This happens for all other file-types. Something goes wrong with the registration of the MIME-types/icons.

IMO a problem of Ubuntu. The icons won't be deleted uninstalling libreoffice. You must delete them manually:
Search as root in nautilus for libreoffice* and delete the files.

I did that (in a VM) but even after reapplying "desktop-integration" I don't get the icons from AOO but only generic ones.

You have to do this before installing AOO.
The mime handling is treated during the installation of the basic packages not by the desktop-integration, IMO.

Tried that, didn't work. I install AOO regular when a new build is available.

Nevertheless, the MIME-registration should work even if the LO icons are present.

+1

@ Matthias: You are right.

I made an installation of Ubuntu 16.10 and purged all packages of libreoffice. Result is as described in Description.
I would expect that purging all libreoffice packages removes the icons too.

Removing all libreoffice icons results in showing the standard system icons.
