Public bug reported:

Some indicators like Dropbox etc can't show submenus out of the box.
The issue seems to be incorrect dependency.

Kubuntu-Meta still depends on libappindicator3-1 while nowadays it is
common to link against libayatana-appindicator3-1 hence the issue.

Not sure how to do the transition smoothly but it has to be done at some
point before 24.04.1.

Aside of some apps not being unable to show sub-menus, apps like Spotify
can't be installed without manual intervention to swap
libappindicator3-1 with libayatana-appindicator3-1 (including
dependencies).
