[Bug 1246435] [NEW] Clock is not displayed in notification area

 

Public bug reported:

About an hour and 10 minutes after I booted up, I looked up to find my
indicator clock and noticed it was missing. I googled and found a Stack
Overflow question <http://askubuntu.com/questions/224400/unity-clock-
missing> that indicated that indicator-datetime is the package
responsible for the clock. It's installed, but the clock doesn't
display, and I can't find a bin or command to launch it.

I haven't restarted Unity or lightdm or rebooted yet. I figured I'd
submit the bug first while my system state might indicate the problem.

Edit: Follow up. I still haven't rebooted or restarted any services. I
ran the following, but it did not help.

    apt-get install --reinstall indicator-datetime

Edit: Follow up. I still haven't rebooted or restarted any services. I
ran the following, and the clock now displays. I didn't do this
immediately because restarting Unity randomly scatters your windows all
over all of your workspaces.

    unity &!
