Removing nm-applet-use-indicator.patch (and refreshing the patches that depend on it) fixes this in Xubuntu. In other words, that patch causes the regression.
I'm removing the invalid status on network-manager-applet (Ubuntu), in hopes of getting someone to reevaluate this. If Ubuntu maintainers are going to patch in special functionality just for Unity, how about doing it without breaking things? (This is not the first time a patch intended to make a package use Unity's Application Indicators has broken the package for Xubuntu and other desktops. I really wish the people responsible would be more careful.) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-icon-theme in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/772709 Title: Network Manager Icon Is not changin when VPN is connected (nm-device- wired-secure icon is missing) Status in GNOME Icon Theme: New Status in tango-icon-theme: Confirmed Status in elementary-icon-theme package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in gnome-icon-theme package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in lubuntu-artwork package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in network-manager-applet package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in tango-icon-theme package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: gnome-icon-theme Ater upgrading to 11.04 in gnome icon the (humanity and unity themes works fine) is see bad icons when connecting VPN and VPN is connected.
