[Bug 974480] Re: Notification area whitelist is obsolete

2013-11-05 Thread Jason Donahue
Finally got around to updating to 13.10 and find my patch no longer works. As Maxim stated com.canonical.Unity.Panel is not being used. So, now my ppa just whitelists everything. Again, the ppa is here: https://launchpad.net/~timekiller/+archive/unity-systrayfix to use it, of course: sudo apt-a

This causes a real problem with Gtk Perl applications. There are no Perl modules to create indicators for Gtk3 (that I could find). All I could find was Gtk2::AppIndicator. You are effectively forcing Perl developers to Gtk2 rather than allowing us to move forward to Gtk3 development. This halts de
