Title:
  Remove python-appindicator and gir1.2-appindicator-0.1

Status in libappindicator package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in libappindicator source package in Focal:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  gir1.2-appindicator-0.1 has no reverse dependencies (it is for gtk2
  GObject Introspection)

  There are only 2 packages that recommend python-appindicator. It would be trivial to drop the recommends. Those 2 packages (deluge and
  gtk-recordmydesktop) will probably be removed from Debian approx. September 2019 because they use pygtk.

  $ reverse-depends python-appindicator
  Reverse-Recommends
  ==================
  * deluge-gtk
  * gtk-recordmydesktop

  previous reverse depends
  -----------------------
  * cherrytree — dependency on python-appindicator was dropped early in bionic.  RM requested in LP: #1731725
  * hamster-indicator - source package was removed (LP: #1739797)

  --------------------------
  OTHER GTK2 REVERSE DEPENDS
  --------------------------
  The other gtk2 libraries for libappindicator aren't planned for removal yet.
