Hi @georgelpreput,
Thanks for the feedback!

For now, please continue to use the previous version (r139.a75456c-1). It should work perfectly on GNOME as before.

There is actually no functional difference between r139 and r140 except that upstream switched the build system from Make to Meson.

I'm looking into the Budgie-related confusion right now.

I'm a bit confused, have been using this package with GNOME for years now, but the last few versions seem to require Budgie? The project on GitHub mentions this should work on GNOME (and yes, I'm running now an older version of this very package on GNOME), while there's also a separate indicator-sysmonitor-budgie-git which in my understanding should be the one requiring Budgie. What am I missing here?

@homerhsing Thanks!

homerhsing commented on 2026-01-12 13:04 (UTC)

@alexbond fixed

alexbond commented on 2026-01-12 10:56 (UTC)

@homerhsing Thanks for fix!

However, there's still one issue.

After installing the package, the applet can't be added to the panel because it's not in the list of available applets.

Then, in the "BudgieSysMonitor.plugin" file, the line "Loader=python3" is changed to "Loader=python". The applet appears in the list of available applets and is successfully added to the panel.

@alexbond Thanks for the heads-up! Fixed, using meson now.

alexbond commented on 2026-01-08 10:23 (UTC)

Package must be compiled by 'meson', 'make' does not work.

Time to add libayatana-appindicator to optdepends(), see the latest commit.

@yochananmarqos

this package is not inventing new package names, it has always been called this, in accordance with upstream, fyi
