For me I clicked on the package link that CyberConan posted and then
opened it in gdebi, and clicked "reinstall package". That fixed the
mouse cursor problem for me.

As far as being urgent, I agree, this is an urgent bug and should've
received a higher priority as soon as it was reported. In my opinion
there is never an excuse for a regression, especially something that
prevents you from using an entire package category. Intrepid is
definitely the worst Ubuntu release ever, and it really pains me to say
that. There are more bugs left in the final release than I've ever
noticed in any previous release.
