What is the status of ayatana indicators support in lightdm-gtk-greeter?

[Kat]

Hello,

I am attempting to use ayatana-indicator-power to show battery 
percent/status on the lightdm-gtk-greeter login page, but having trouble 
getting it to work. I am on debian stable/trixie.

I found a page on the ayatana indicators transition for Debian, but the 
status for lightdm-gtk-greeter there has not been updated since 2018: 
https://wiki.debian.org/Ayatana/IndicatorsTransition#Package:_lightdm-gtk-greeter

I would guess that, 8 years later, the transition is probably complete 
and that page just didn't get updated?

After setting "indicators=power" in 
/etc/lightdm/lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf , pstree shows that a process 
called ayatana-indicator-power is launched by systemd while I'm at the 
greeter screen. That process isn't launched without "indicators=power" 
in the config file, so looks like lightdm-gtk-greeter is trying to 
launch and use the ayatana indicator. But the indicator doesn't actually 
display on the lightdm-gtk-greeter login screen.

Is this something that's supposed to work (if so, I'll put in a bug 
report)? Or are ayatana indicators still not officially supported by 
lightdm-gtk-greeter yet?

Thanks,
Kat
