This is the updated version of https://github.com/mate-desktop/mate-polkit/pull/41/

lukefromdc commented 1 year ago

Just tested successfully with Ayatana appindicator, since I cannot readly uninstall this a test against the older Ubuntu appindicator is not practical here. Previously had both installed at once.

Output from configuration included these relevent lines:

    Accountsservice ..........: yes

    AppIndicator enabled:              yes
    Ayatana AppIndicator (preferred)   yes
    Ubuntu AppIndicator (legacy)       no

    Maintainer mode ..........: no

Cleaned up a tab used instead of spaces by mistake. We NEED this if indicators are to be used in Debian Unstable or the coming release witthout digging up years-old packages

It builds fine with using libappindicator on a ayatana appIndicator free system like fedora.

    AppIndicator enabled:              yes
    Ayatana AppIndicator (preferred)   no
    Ubuntu AppIndicator (legacy)       yes

As a side note i found out that it is possible to to use both build dependencies when installed.

    AppIndicator enabled:              yes
    Ayatana AppIndicator (preferred)   yes
    Ubuntu AppIndicator (legacy)       yes

Well, i don't think that there is a distro which use both, but it is a bit weird.
