Public bug reported:

I am using AppIndicator via Python. On Ubuntu 12.10 (stock install,
python-appindicator: Installed: 12.10.0-0ubuntu1) when I listen for
scroll event signals, the direction is always reported as UP, never as
DOWN - even when scrolling down. This was working on 12.04.

My application variety depends on this functionality, here is the
relevant bug report for it:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/variety/+bug/1071598

Here is sample code to demonstrate the problem (OK on 12.04, buggy on
12.10):

from gi.repository import Gtk, Gdk, AppIndicator3

if __name__ == "__main__":
    menu = Gtk.Menu()
    quit = Gtk.MenuItem("Quit")
    quit.connect("activate", Gtk.main_quit)
    menu.append(quit)
    menu.show_all()

    def scroll(ind, steps, direction):
        print steps, direction
        if direction != Gdk.ScrollDirection.UP:
            print "Things seem ok"

    indicator = AppIndicator3.Indicator.new('testscroll', '', 
AppIndicator3.IndicatorCategory.APPLICATION_STATUS)
    indicator.set_status(AppIndicator3.IndicatorStatus.ACTIVE)
    indicator.set_icon("/usr/share/pixmaps/firefox.png")
    indicator.connect("scroll-event", scroll)
    indicator.set_menu(menu)
    Gtk.main()
