This is not an official build of Blender and as such we do not provide support for it. Instead you should install Blender from one of the official install locations such as from Steam, Snap, or manually from the .tar file: https://www.blender.org/download

It's possible the cause for the missing icon is that the version of Blender you're using has been modified a bit and the icon was removed, you're running an icon theme that themes the icon as transparent, or potentially some other issue.
