Re: [gnome-flashback] [Gnome-Flashback] Global-menu(Indicator-applet-appmenu) bug on gnome-panel

[Alberts Muktupāvels <alberts muktupavels gmail com>]

Hi!

http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/trusty/gnome-panel/trusty/view/head:/debian/patches/40_unset_menuproxy.patch

Seems that unsetenv("UBUNTU_MENUPROXY"); does not work. Changed that line to setenv ("UBUNTU_MENUPROXY", "0", TRUE); and appmenu almost works. Applets does not disappear, but there might be other problem... for example in gedit I can access menu, but labels are missing in panel.

My wild guess is that this is caused by unity-gtk-module, which tries
to remove gtkmenubars from everything (including panel applets).

When starting gnome-panel with env UBUNTU_MENUPROXY= (empty string),
adding appmenu applet no longer breaks application/places menu, but
still breaks other indicators (perhaps because they use separate
processes).

Will continue investigations later.
