Bug Description

There currently is an initiative going on in Debian and Ubuntu to make Indicators globally available, esp. available to non-Ubuntu systemes.

For this, we are sending out patches to various applications that build-depend on libappindicator*-dev.

Here is a patch against update-notifier 3.189 that brings this change.

Thanks,
Mike

Thank you for your bug report, that's late for a such change this cycle. Also libayatana-appindicator is in universe and would need to be promoted to main first (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MainInclusionProcess)

Unsubscribing sponsors, that's not ready for upload until the source is promoted

Hi,

did you probably close the wrong bug here?

The bug was previously closed because the patch was uploaded in update-notifier 3.192.2, which never migrated to the release pocket and was subsequently reverted in the upload that did migrate.

libayatana-appindicator is still in universe, with no open MIR bug. libappindicator is in main and maintained by the Ubuntu Desktop Team, libayatana-appindicator has no team that has signed up to be responsible for it in Ubuntu main. Marking this incomplete as it would be inappropriate to introduce this change before there is a committment by the Desktop Team to trade libappindicator for libayatana-appindicator in main.
