Bug Description

Using 'indicator-multiload' version 0.4-0ubuntu5 in a system freshly updated to Ubuntu 17.10 (GNOME Shell 3.26.2).

As soon as 'indicator-multiload' is launched, the following messages appear ad infinitum in syslog:

Jan 3 16:23:11 random gnome-shell[1961]: [AppIndicatorSupport-WARN] Attempting to re-register :1.146/org/ayatana/NotificationItem/multiload; resetting instead
Jan 3 16:23:11 random gnome-shell[1961]: [AppIndicatorSupport-WARN] Item :1.146/org/ayatana/NotificationItem/multiload is already registered
