This is a pretty annoying bug, but I'm using another fix that's a lot easier than editing the `.desktop` shortcuts for all afflicted applications.
You can just globally override the XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP variable by adding the following lines to your ~/.profile: # Overwrite the XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP variable to fix this Ubuntu bug: # https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/1679528 export XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=Unity -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1679528 Title: Missing Skype & Google Hangouts tray icon in 17.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/1679528/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
