Public bug reported: Starting from 16.10, Ubuntu MATE developers switched the whole MATE Desktop Environment to GTK+3. As a consequence, mate-indicator-applet now uses indicator-application instead of legacy indicator-application- gtk2. But indicator-application uses .desktop file instead of D-Bus service (I guess it has been changed in [1]), and indicator- application.desktop file doesn't know about MATE:
[Desktop Entry] Type=Application Name=Indicator Application Exec=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/indicator-application/indicator-application-service StartupNotify=false Terminal=false OnlyShowIn=Unity;GNOME; AutostartCondition=GNOME3 unless-session gnome So, currently indicator-application doesn't show up in mate-indicator- applet on mate-panel as the service isn't running. If I run indicator- application-service manually, indicator-application works as intended (e.g. nm-applet is switched to it instead of using tray icon). Please, let indicator applet know about MATE. --------- [1] http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~indicator-applet-developers/indicator- application/trunk.16.10/revision/242 ** Affects: ubuntu-mate Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: indicator-application (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: indicator yakkety ** Also affects: ubuntu-mate Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1588297 Title: [16.10] indicator-application isn't aware of MATE To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mate/+bug/1588297/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
