Reading through the bug report linked by Daniel van Vugt (vanvugt) in comment #24 (https://github.com/micheleg/dash-to-dock/issues/128), I noticed that Dash-to-Dock is only affected.
I had uninstalled the Ubuntu Dock... $ sudo apt autoremove --purge gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock However, I was using the Dash-to-Dock extension, instead. $ sudo apt install gnome-shell-extension-dashtodock So, I disabled Dash-to-Dock. Now the problem is gone. Are all of you using either Dash-to-Dock or the Ubuntu-Dock? If so, what happens when you disable or remove it? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1725384 Title: On touch screens, the apps icon in the dock does not open when touched Status in Dash to dock: New Status in gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I have an Bangho AERO 1104 with touch screen, when I try to open the application drawer from the applications icon in the dock, it does not open. 1)- Ubuntu 17.10 Artful Aardvark 64 bit 2)- gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock_0.7 3)- What should happen is that touching the applications icon in the dock, opens the application drawer. 4)- Instead, what has happened is that absolutely nothing happened To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/dash-to-dock/+bug/1725384/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
