[Bug 1270486] Re: indicator-application doesn't use the menu item's label if it has a stock icon

 

This issue is in the dbusmenu parser code. Specifically right here:

http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~dbusmenu-
team/libdbusmenu/trunk.14.04/view/head:/libdbusmenu-gtk/parser.c#L882

What we're doing is taking the stock label, for stock images. I think
this is correct as the idea of a stock image is that there is a
consistent application of it across the user experience. Using the stock
icon without the label would mean you're trying to change the meaning of
that icon, which seems like incorrect usage.

** Package changed: indicator-application (Ubuntu) => libdbusmenu
(Ubuntu)

** Changed in: libdbusmenu (Ubuntu)
       Status: Triaged => Won't Fix
