Install Ayatana AppIndicators on Elementary OS 5.0

The latest elementary OS 5.0 Juno, does not support the old Ayatana AppIndicators by default. This is how to re-enable AppIndicators on elementary OS Juno.

Install Ayatana AppIndicators

  • First, copy indicator-application.desktop to ~/.config directory, and add Pantheon to OnlyShowIn line in indicator-application.desktop:

    $ mkdir -p ~/.config/autostart
$ cp /etc/xdg/autostart/indicator-application.desktop ~/.config/autostart/
$ sed -i 's/^OnlyShowIn.*/OnlyShowIn=Unity;GNOME;Pantheon;/' ~/.config/autostart/indicator-application.desktop

  • download the .deb package and install it manually,

    $ wget http://ppa.launchpad.net/elementary-os/stable/ubuntu/pool/main/w/wingpanel-indicator-ayatana/wingpanel-indicator-ayatana_2.0.3+r27+pkg17~ubuntu0.4.1.1_amd64.deb
$ sudo dpkg -i wingpanel-indicator-ayatana_2.0.3+r27+pkg17~ubuntu0.4.1.1_amd64.deb
