Description Heiko Adams 2014-03-29 14:38:14 UTC
Description of problem:
I updated my Gnome to v3.12 by using rhughes COPR and since then the firewalld-applet icon is missing in the lower right notification area.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
$ rpm -qa firewall\*
firewall-applet-0.3.9.3-1.fc20.noarch
firewalld-0.3.9.3-1.fc20.noarch
firewall-config-0.3.9.3-1.fc20.noarch

How reproducible:
allways

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Upgrade to Gnome 3.12
2. Reboot
3. Log into Gnome

Actual results:
The firewall-applet is present in the notification area but without an icon

Expected results:
The icon of the firewall-applet should be displayed in the notification area of the gnome-shell

Additional info:
Other applets like cryptkeeper, dropbox or libreoffice still have an icon.

Exactly the same issue here. Fedora 20 running on Dell 1545 64-bit. Using Gnome 3.12 via rhughes COPR. Applet icon disappears from notification tray, but clicking in the area where the icon should be displays the applet menu.

This is a problem with Fedora 21 Beta with Gnome 3.14 too.
  gnome-shell-3.14.1.5-1.fc21.x86_64
  firewalld-0.3.12-1.fc21.noarch
  firewall-applet-0.3.12-1.fc21.noarch

The Gnome message tray shows a blank spot for the firewall-applet icon.  Click on the blank spot and info about the firewall appears, or right-click and the menu appears to edit firewall settings.

Comment 3 Laurent Bigonville 2014-12-21 17:39:38 UTC
I can actually confirm this on Debian with gnome-shell 3.14.

Apparently forcing the "check_gnome3()" function to return True fix the problem.

Comment 4 Roger Wells 2014-12-31 18:20:14 UTC
I can confirm Comment 3 does get the icon back (in the firewall-applet python script).  However I expect that the real problem is in the tests that precede the final return.

Comment 5 Laurent Bigonville 2015-02-19 15:15:29 UTC
IIRC (I didn't rechecked recently), the issue with the check is that it expect that gnome-shell is a direct parent process of the applet one. This is not true (anymore?) as the applet process is started by gnome-session
