This is a simple request to add Ubuntu's new fancy indicator applet into your repositories.
It's really nice and pretty useful!

Are you willing to package this? AFAIK, it does not work well without patching of apps.

Comment 2 Enno Weichert 2010-06-04 08:16:32 UTC

I admit I only tried a half-hearted attempt to compile it. I got stuck in *-dev dependencies very soon.
Also I'm afraid my packaging skills would be far less than desirable.

Comment 3 Bill Nottingham 2010-06-04 15:15:28 UTC

OK. We don't normally add things without willing maintainers, so I'm closing this as WONTFIX for now - if a maintainer comes along willing to volunteer to package it, it can be added.
