Isn't the fix just to revert bug 1126360 and fix Unity to look in both the old and new directories?

We should enable multiarch indicators. 1) Add a new variable to the libindicator .pc files called something like genericindicatordir which continues to be just /usr/lib 2) Switch the indicatordir variable to a multiarch location (again -- we reverted away from that for bug 1126360) 3) Have unity fallback to look in the genericindicatordir as well as the (now-) multiarch indicatordir for plugins 4) As each indicator gets rebuilt, it will automatically migrate to multiarch, since "indicatordir" is now multiarch. But old indicators will still work.
