[Bug 1246364] Re: update-notifier does not show a tray icon in xubuntu

[redman]

Forest,

In Ubuntu 12.04 is was using this:
http://www.webupd8.org/2012/03/update-manager-indicator-displays.html

It was configurable, to always show the icon.

Anyway, thanks for all the great work.

  update-notifier does not show a tray icon in xubuntu

Bug description:
  update-notifier does not show a tray icon/notification in xubuntu 13.10 anymore. Instead the software updater window appears minimized, when updates are available.
  Additionally I tried to trigger the 'System Restart Required'-notification manually by adapting /var/run/reboot-required, but no notification was displayed (although it shows up in motd).
  As a side note: I got a 'there is something wrong with updates'-notification by removing update-notifier-common while update-notifier was running.
