Bug Description

After installing some packages needed to compile outer application (codeblocks) after reboot xfce4-indicator-plugin started crashing directly on system load with given message:

"Plugin "Indicator Plugin" unexpectedly left the panel, do you want to restart it?

 The plugin restarted more than once in the last 60 seconds. If you press Execute the panel will try to restart the plugin otherwise it will be permanently removed from the panel."

Pressing "Execute" gives this message at once again. Pressing "Remove" just prevents it from auto launch. I attach the file with the list of installed packages on my system.

My workaround with this bug is to set the "Application Menus (Global Menu)" item to Hidden in the Indicator Plugin, which is good because I didn't want those menus anyway.

I have the same problem, plus I'm unable to make nm-applet and other important indicators show in the Notification Area, so I'm stumped.

I can confirm this is a valid work around.
