I'm using Ubuntu 13.10 with Unity. I'm willing to have an indicator for my Gmail inbox.


  • My current situation :

I now use unity-mail, which works great with indicator-messages and is fully integrated in Unity. But I have one thing that I don't like, check this screenshot :

indicator-messages with unity-mail

As you can see, indicator-messages still shows me status "available", "away", "invisible", and such. I would like to only have my emails, I don't care about the other things this package can do.


  • A way to achieve this :

I saw here this screenshot : this is exaclty what I would like to have !

indicator-messages status-free

I also saw here that I could use the sources to recompile indicator-messages, by modifying some lines. Unfortunately, the sources seems to have been rewritten, I can't follow the answer given, one file doesn't exist anymore and the code in the second file isn't the same.


  • So, here's the question :

How can I recompile indicator-messages to hide the status on 13.10 ?

  • @Braiam : Shall I copy the answer provided by sneetcher to 12.04 question and close this thread ?
