[Test Case] * Install stock Xubuntu 13.10. The indicator menu for sound should fail to display when clicking on the sound icon. [Regression Potential] * There is a risk of further conflict between the gtk2 and gtk3 sound indicators. In previous releases the two versions were almost identical but this changed in Saucy (this is also the reason -gtk2 broke). In particular, there is a potential for the two indicators to use gsettings configuration keys in different ways which may lead to problems. Testing should be done on systems with both Unity and Xubuntu installed. * While Xubuntu is working on landing gtk3 indicators for 14.04 the landing of such for 13.10 now would be a massive change requiring approval by potentially the Technical Board. [Other Info] * In general Xubuntu users have been distressed over not having the indicator sound menu available which makes this an issue we would like to resolve expeditiously. * Xubuntu will need to adjust its website documentation slightly to note that users must select "Download updates while installing" during an installation from the LiveCD to ensure this fix is picked up to avoid a broken interface experience.
