It's been pointed out to me that Wily does not integrate anything Google by default. Checking back, I set up the Google account in my Online Accounts, when I installed evolution, so I could import my google contacts.
Google contacts don't export in a format which the Thunderbird address- book can use, and the recommended method I found on the Ubuntu wiki seems to be to install evolution. This must have been where the problem began - although I had assumed Google account integration was a Wily default. My bad! It still represents a Unity problem when they are removed though, so I'll add this information to the bug. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to unity in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1490277 Title: Unity dash fails to show applications Status in unity package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Immediately after removing interaction with all Google accounts (settings->online accounts), the Unity dash no longer showed any applications, only files recently accessed. The launcher sidebar is unaffected, and the dash appears as normal but without access to applications. I re-instated all the default online account setting with no effect even after re-booting. I found in an Ubuntu wiki, a workaround for the same problem in 15.04, but this is not longer useable, as the '--reset' Unity commandline parameter, which was required, has now been removed. So far, I can't find where this information is stored, and there is no useful item to edit in the Unity plugin as seen in cssm. I am willing to try anything suggested and report.
