Control: severity -1 serious

Hello XFCE Maintainers,

I'm bumping the severity of this bug report because the libindicators
package in RC buggy and likely not going to make it for bullseye,
plus the fact that this bug report has been open with patch for >1.5
years now! Apparently it needs some extra visibility or likely an NMU.

Regards,
Andreas Henriksson

As a short update on this, let me add... The Ayatana Indicators will be a heavy dependency of the upcoming-to-Debian Unity8 desktop environment.

The Unity8 packaging is funded, so I will be able to work on Ayatana Indicators in Debian in general in the context of the Unity8 packaging, as well. This said, porting over from libindicator to libayatana-indicator is the only way to go here.

Furthermore, applications built against libappindicator should be ported to libayatana-appindicator. However, this is OT here, just a general info.

For more info, see here:

(I haven't updated this page for a while, but it is certainly on my (looooong) list).
