The solution here is to convince the package maintainers that WE NEED THEM TO FIX THIS BUG.
My patch still works on the latest release. ALL THEY NEED TO DO IS APPLY IT. I occasionally update my PPA for the release that I run myself (currently Xubuntu yakkety), but expecting me to do maintain a parallel distribution of update-notifier is not a realistic solution. ** Tags added: yakkety -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1246364 Title: update-notifier does not show a tray icon in xubuntu To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/1246364/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
