Description James 2012-01-21 21:45:57 UTC
Last working version:
gnome-shell-3.2.1-2.fc16.x86_64.rpm

Description of problem:
1. Under gnome-shell-3.2.2-1.fc16.x86_64, traditional notification icons (those found in the bottom-right corner, such as the "classic" NetworkManager applet, Skype or XChat) sometimes don't appear, and the associated menus never pop-up when clicked.

2. The right-click action is intercepted and a gnome-shell bubble pops up with two actions, including "Remove". This should not be, as some traditional applets present a different menu on right-click. This menu could possibly be reserved for a long right-click (similar to the icons on the Favourites area in the Activities overview).

Other package versions:
gtk3-3.2.3-1.fc16.x86_64
mutter-3.2.1-2.fc16.x86_64
clutter-1.8.2-3.fc16.x86_64

From .xsession-errors on gnome-shell-3.2.2-1 (relevance not known):

No unusual messages of which I am aware from the applications that place the icons.

Confirm fixed with gnome-shell-3.2.2.1-1.fc16.x86_64. Should've checked Koji first ;)
