Well I put indicator-appmenu back. (because I wanted to try out LIM, didn't work.) Instead of removing it again, I tried the menuproxy trick. Hud works now, if you could call it that. All it does is bring up options for the indicators. Despite me typing a direct command for the active app. (Gedit, tried a few commands.)
I had to google how to use menuproxy, turns out you have to sudo su so you can enter a file in the xsession.d folder. I wouldn't call that a workable solution by any stretch of the imagination. I find the smug suggestion that that is the proper way to disable appmenu, offensive on so many levels. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/939255 Title: unity (hud) should depend on appmenu dbus not indicator-appmenu.
