artfwohi! can anyone help me with a problem - i have a gedit plugin, which creates an extra menu in the toplevel menubar. apparently, indicator-appmenu isn't aware of this and doesn't show the new menu - how can i fix it?06:23
RAOFartfwo: Hm.  I'd guess you're hitting the same problem that freeciv was.  Let me grab the bug.06:41
zniavregood morning06:44
zniavrethere is a new solution for this please ?06:44

RAOFartfwo: Yes indeed.06:44
artfwoRAOF: it seems they fixed it by disabling global menu for freeciv completely, this is unacceptable06:45
RAOFThat was the solution for the SRU, but there's also a proper fix in there.  Something about setting ubuntu-local?06:46
artfwolooking06:47
RAOFartfwo: http://gna.org/bugs/download.php?file_id=1361206:48
artfwoRAOF: from the comments i get it freeciv has several menu bars. my case is a bit different - i am modifying gedit menubar (there is only one), and setting "ubuntu-local" property on it will make it inconsistent with the rest of the desktop06:50
artfwoRAOF: instead, i'm looking for a way to notify indicator-appmenu, that menubar has changed and update it accordingly06:50
RAOFartfwo: Oh.  I'd guess that's actually just a gtk/appmenu bug, then.06:52
artfwowhich should i report the bug against?06:52
RAOFI'm unsure.  appmenu-gtk?06:55
