I experience exactly the same symptoms as the bug report description
has.
After some time nm-applet stops reacting to user input and submenu
entries do not populate. This is with latest 12.10 packages.
I noticed that the indicator tries to get the menu but it fails - dbus-monitor
output below:
method call sender=:1.12 -> dest=:1.67 serial=14296
path=/com/canonical/Unity/Panel/Service;
interface=com.canonical.Unity.Panel.Service; member=ShowEntry
string "0x26ef470"
uint32 0
int32 1147
int32 24
uint32 1
uint32 1356027813
method return sender=:1.67 -> dest=:1.12 reply_serial=14296
method call sender=:1.67 -> dest=:1.14 serial=107621
path=/org/ayatana/NotificationItem/nm_applet/Menu;
interface=com.canonical.dbusmenu; member=AboutToShowGroup
array [
int32 80799
]
error sender=:1.14 -> dest=:1.67
error_name=org.gtk.GDBus.UnmappedGError.Quark._LIBDBUSMENU_2dGLIB.Code0
reply_serial=107621
string "The IDs supplied '[80799]' do not refer to any menu items we have"
When some item is clicked (e.g. disconnect for current wifi AP) the following
happens:
signal sender=:1.67 -> dest=(null destination) serial=107704
path=/com/canonical/Unity/Panel/Service;
interface=com.canonical.Unity.Panel.Service; member=EntryActivated
string ""
struct {
int32 0
int32 0
uint32 0
uint32 0
}
method call sender=:1.67 -> dest=:1.14 serial=107705
path=/org/ayatana/NotificationItem/nm_applet/Menu;
interface=com.canonical.dbusmenu; member=EventGroup
array [
struct {
int32 80846
string "clicked"
variant int32 0
uint32 106251172
}
]
error sender=:1.14 -> dest=:1.67
error_name=org.gtk.GDBus.UnmappedGError.Quark._LIBDBUSMENU_2dGLIB.Code0
reply_serial=107705
string "The IDs supplied '[80846]' do not refer to any menu items we have"
So this looks like like dbus menu is losing the IDs or nm-applet is
using the ids that are no longer valid.
