libappindicator doesn't implement "Activate" method at all, causing the left-click on KDE4/Plasma 5 systray to do nothing.
It seems like it was some design decision, IMO a poor one. I've written a patch to make "Activate" method act as "SecondaryActivate": https://aur4.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/0001 -Add-support-for-Activate-method-for-improved-Plasma-.patch?h =libappindicator-activate&id=d47196aa3ea9c1ad4f647d90b2d77425a2fdd56e -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to libappindicator in Ubuntu.
