[Bug 1640409] Re: show my login name in menu bar not working.

 

That is because XDG_SEAT and XDG_SESSION_ID are not set anymore &
indicator-session depends on it.

dbus-x11 installs /etc/X11/Xsession.d/95dbus_update-activation-env which
unsets those env variables.

Comment out those & reboot. It will work again. LP: #1831491
