Privilige Escalation icon corrupt (when built with appindicator support).

[Rahtgaz]

Arch Linux Package: mate-polkit 1.18.1-1 (https://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/mate-polkit/)

With 1.18 an old problem has resurfaced (that emerged initially on 1.16 and was fixed on 1.17, if memory serves me right): The Privilege Escalation icon on the notification area of the panel is showing again corrupt.

According to the PKGBUILD file, the package is built from the sources available at http://pub.mate-desktop.org/sources/mate-polkit/1.18/mate-polkit-1.18.1.tar.xz and without any modifications.

If icon corrupt means the icon remains in the panel after the application is closed and right-click -> Drop all elevated privileges has no effect on it (which is "normal" since the app(s) running with elevated privileges is/are closed already). We have the same problem on Solus (which currently uses mate-polkit-1.18.2)
