Public bug reported:

* Availability

It's available on the Ubuntu supported architectures
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libayatana-indicator/0.8.4-1

The package is in sync with Debian

* Rationale

The source is a community maintained replacement for our current
libindicator. Debian has transitioned and we plan to follow their lead
now, demoting libappindicator to universe until we can remove it from
the archive.

The binary to promote is libayatana-indicator3-7

The request is low priority, it's a target of opportunity transition, it
doesn't need to land this cycle

* Security

There is no known security issues

https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/pkg/libayatana-appindicator.html
https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvekey.cgi?keyword=libayatana-appindicator

* Quality assurance

The desktop team is going to subscribe to the package

https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libayatana-appindicator/+bugs
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=libayatana-appindicator

The source depends on some outdated libraries but that's because there
are still old applications needing it, that's already the case with our
libappindicator so not a change of status

The package enables upstream tests during the build and those are
successfult.

There is no test nor autopkgtest in this package, but that's a situation not 
really different from our current indicator libraries. The issue has been 
reported to Debian and they are working on adding some now

* Dependencies

 Depends: libayatana-ido3-0.4-0 (>= 0.8.0), libc6 (>= 2.4), libgdk-
pixbuf-2.0-0 (>= 2.22.0), libglib2.0-0 (>= 2.37.3), libgtk-3-0 (>=
3.21.4)

Currently libayatana-ido is in universe, that's MIR bug #1915561

* Standards compliance

current 4.5.1 standards-version, debhelper compat 13, dh style simple
rules

* Maintenance

Upstream is active, the package is maintained in Debian and desktop team
is going to sign up for Ubuntu
