Since the bug report indicated this worked in alpha3, but stopped
working as of April 8th, I started testing versions of libappindicator
starting from the release right after alpha3. This was
0.0.15-0ubuntu1. I checked out the release from
lp:~ubuntu-desktop/indicator-application/ubuntu at each specific
revision and built the packages using dpkg-buildpackage.

The bug was first exhibited for me at package version 0.0.17-0ubuntu1,
which is this branch revision:

http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-desktop/indicator-application/ubuntu/revision/98

I am slightly confused because there doesn't seem to be anything here
that I imagine would cause the kind of breakage being reported.

The one concern I have about this testing method is that I am building
the libappindicator package on an up to date system. Thus, I have
different versions of the libappindicator dependencies than were
likely in the archive at the time of the original package build. This
might affect where the problem first arose.

I think I'll need additional help from either Ted or Cody to figure
out what might be going on here.
