15:39 <willcooke> #topic desrt
15:39 <desrt> trying to figure out this libappmenu issue... it more or less has to be on the unity-panel-service side... pretty sure it's no change in gio or libappmenu since there are no changes there in a year, so leaning toward a gtk change impacting the weird stuff that libappmenu does to it now
15:39 <desrt> just about to jump into that now
15:39 <desrt> eof
