[15:32] <vish> hyperair: hei , did you see the ppa for the notification area icon bug?
[15:32] <vish> seems to be pointing at gnome-panel again ;p
[15:32] <hyperair> vish: what PPA?
[15:32] <hyperair> vish: the rgba gtk+ one?
[15:33] <vish> hyperair: https://launchpad.net/~cyfex/+archive/ppa
[15:33] <hyperair> vish: eh exactly what's in that gnome-panel package?

[15:36] <ubot5> Error: Could not parse data returned by Launchpad: list.index(x): x not in list (https://launchpad.net/bugs/403135)
[15:37] <hyperair> lulz ubot fail
[15:38] <hyperair> vish: ohoho. is that so? 
[15:38] <hyperair> --with-in-process-applets
[15:38] <hyperair> well i've always thought gnome-panel was a piece of crap for having everything as an individual process >_>
[15:38] <vish> heh ;p
[15:39] <hyperair> but yes it's worth a try indeed =p
[15:39] <hyperair> how come gtkstatusicon successfully works around this bug, though?
[15:39] <hyperair> or am i getting something wrong and this is the workaround instead
[15:39] <vish> no idea..
[15:53] <hyperair> vish: have you tried it yourself?
[15:54] <hyperair> that gnome-panel seems outdated, i'm going to try the mentioned fix on a local gnome-panel
[15:54] <hyperair> it could very well explain why so many of my gnome-panel applets fail at being transparent when the background colour is changed.
[16:18]  * hyperair runs sbuild
[16:57] <hyperair> vish: IT'S FIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIXED!!!
[16:58] <hyperair> vish: do i get to mark everything as invalid and point fingers at gnome-panel now?
[17:03] <vish> hyperair: woot!  i was thinking of re-opening the gnome-panel task , but thought better to ask seb128 first
[17:04] <hyperair> yes, better.
