I am not going to add notification area back _by_default_. This is consistent with what other desktops do: - Plasma 5 and Unity do not support X11 system tray at all. - Mainstream GNOME is discouraging use of X11 tray and moving it to a place that is difficult to reach. ... and with what toolkits do: - Qt 5.5 supports Ubuntu's indicators by default. For Qt 5.4, this functionality is available in appmenu-qt5. - Gtk+ deprecated GtkStatusIcon in 3.14 and is encouraging use of platform-specific tray mechanisms (which will be indicators in our case).

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1263591] Re: Add notification-area to panel-default-layout.layout
By old-style you mean XKB? And new-style is IBus? IBus is too buggy, keyboard layout switching only works if one types slowly (LP: #1241284), and sometimes it doesn't work at all, and sometimes the indicator doesn't get updated even if you use the new-style switching, and it needs 40+ MB RAM for lower quality layout switching than the one X has been offering out of the box for ages... We'll blacklist IBus for schools here as it's not yet usable, so hopefully XKB will still be in a working state for 14.04.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1263591] Re: Add notification-area to panel-default-layout.layout
OK Dmitry and thank you for trying it, but in my opinion if the ibus keyboard indicator is shown twice, that's an ibus bug and not a gnome-panel bug, and it should be solved by making that setting default to false: $ grep systray /etc/dconf/db/ibus.d/00-upstream-settings show-icon-on-systray=true Also, none of those 2 keyboard indicators get updated when using the xorg combination to switch keyboard layouts, so they should be removed anyway and be replaced by something that works before 14.04 gets released, it would be a major regression if the keyboard indicator is not working in an LTS release... What I mean is that ibus bugs shouldn't affect this one.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1263591] Re: Add notification-area to panel-default-layout.layout
OK, you convinced me and I will add it back in the next upload. I will also investigate the nm-applet issue. Re pidgin, I think it uses Messaging Menu out of the box, doesn't it? Also searching the web shows me this: http://www.webupd8.org/2014/01 /pidgin-indicator-ubuntu-appindicator.html. ** Changed in: gnome-panel (Ubuntu) Status: Won't Fix = In Progress ** Changed in: gnome-panel (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) = Dmitry Shachnev (mitya57) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-panel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1263591 Title: Add notification-area to panel-default-layout.layout Status in “gnome-panel” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “gnome-panel” package in Baltix: New Bug description: Upstream gnome-panel includes notification-area: https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-panel/plain/data/panel-default-layout.layout In Ubuntu, debian/patches/01_layout.patch changes that file in order to make use of indicator-applet-complete.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1263591] Re: Add notification-area to panel-default-layout.layout
Thanks a lot for the feedback, I'm marking it as Won't Fix then. Some notes: 1) nm-applet integration has issues, it doesn't display the applet for me on gnome-flashback without manually adding notification-area. I also tried with a recent 14.04 live CD, some times nm-applet did appear and some times it didn't, so I think there's some race condition involved, possibly related to LP #1256961. I'll test more when that bug is resolved. With notification-area manually added, there's no race condition, nm-applet always appears. 2) About pidgin, if you're talking about http://packages.ubuntu.com/indicator-status-provider-pidgin, I see there it's only available for 12.04, maybe that's why I didn't have the integration issues there and I'm having them now in 14.04. In 14.04 I see that indicator-messages conflicts with indicator-status-provider-pidgin, is pidgin in 14.04 supposed to use indicator-messages, and for some reason it doesn't? 3) About stardict and the other apps that aren't yet ported to use the new indicators, let's hope they will soon, but until then, users have no way of knowing why some applications aren't displaying their indicators and that they need to add notification-area manually to work around that problem. Deprecating something doesn't mean it has to be removed immediately, there should be a grace period until e.g. 80% of the involved applications has had enough time to update their code base to use the new indicators. So maybe gnome-panel could grant them that grace period and add notification-area for a couple of more years, dunno...

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1263591] Re: Add notification-area to panel-default-layout.layout
Thanks for your bug report, unfortunately Notification Area is deprecated and all Ubuntu apps are being ported to use application indicators. Both Unity and GNOME Shell are also getting rid of Notification Area. NM-applet should work out of the box as it has nm-applet-use- indicator.patch when built on Ubuntu. There is a third-party indicator available for Pidgin, as well. So if you really want to use Notification Area, you'll have to add it manually. ** Changed in: gnome-panel (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-panel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1263591 Title: Add notification-area to panel-default-layout.layout Status in “gnome-panel” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in “gnome-panel” package in Baltix: New Bug description: Upstream gnome-panel includes notification-area: https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-panel/plain/data/panel-default-layout.layout In Ubuntu, debian/patches/01_layout.patch changes that file in order to make use of indicator-applet-complete.
