Are they 100% compatible? Can you switch between both without loosing any functionality? Will end user notice switch?
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/network-manager-applet/blob/master/configure.ac#L167 network-manager-applet now support both and I doubt that someone tests all indicators - systray, appindicator and ayatana-appindicator... >From https://sunweavers.net/blog/node/67: In Ayatana Indicators (speaking with my upstream hat on now), we are currently working on a re-implementation of the rendering part of the indicators (using GTK's popovers rather then menushells), so that it works on vanilla GTK-3. Help from GTK-3 developers is highly welcome, in case you feel like chiming in. So sounds like visually they are not same or will not be? How that affects Unity 7 or other desktops? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1770146 Title: [MIR] libayatana-appindicator To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libayatana-appindicator/+bug/1770146/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
