Bug Description

Ubuntu 11.10/Unity 2D. No remote indicator shown in the top panel. This is pretty serious as a user will have no indication of remote session connection.
$ apt-cache policy vino

Confirmed, selecting the always display in the vino configuration dialog doesn't lead to any indicator to be displayed

No wonder, the patch is commented in the serie

changelog entry:

https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vino/3.0.2-0ubuntu2
" * debian/patches/12_app-indicators-only.patch
    - Disabled, needs updating"

it never got updated for the new version

There was a workitem on https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/desktop-o-gtk3-gnome3 as well which didn't get done either, we should fix that

This bug was fixed in the package vino - 3.4.0-0ubuntu2

---------------
vino (3.4.0-0ubuntu2) precise; urgency=low

  * debian/rules: use --enable-appindicator instead of --with-indicator.
  * debian/patches/12_app-indicators-only.patch: re-enabled after being updated
    and refreshed. (LP: #884003)
