--- Comment #9 from Jonathan Chun <unmonito...@jonathanchun.com> ---
Update. After going crazy and testing a bunch of stuff out, I wasn't able to
figure out what the problem was because everything looked OK.
Then... it magically fixed itself after I started playing around with Python's
libunity bindings/dbus/building my own electron app to see if I can reproduce
it, I noticed the badge counters were working perfectly! Extremely confused, I
went back and looked through to see where I went wrong(right?).
Turns out, you need to:
sudo apt-get install libunity-dev
on Kubuntu/KDE Neon. I had previously thought that I might have been missing
libunity on my system, so I did
apt search libunity
This gave me a TON of results, a lot of which I already had installed such as
libunity-protocol-private0, libunity-core-6.0-9, libunity9, so I mistakenly
assumed I was OK on that front. Who would have guessed that libunity-dev is
required as well...
In any case, I've marked this resolved. There are still other issues with the
unity launcher API only working with specifically named files and
flatpak/snapstore/etc changing it and breaking compatibility, but thanks to all
the effort I put into troubleshooting this, I think I have an idea of how to
resolve that as well.
Thank you for your patience Michail!
-----
One thing to consider. I don't know what the standard is for apt dependencies,
but if a major feature like unity launcher API doesn't work without the
libunity-dev package, perhaps it should either 1. be documented in FAQ, or 2.
added to the package requirements?
