AppIndicator 53 Gnome shell 3.38.5 Debian 11 stable Vorta 0.7.5-1 from debian repository

Same issue with Dropbox icon. Menu does not appear on click in v53. No issues in v52.

If I disable and enable the extension, then the menu appears on click. However, I need to do this after every reboot.

Please provide shell logs and if possible try to git bisect to figure out which commit is the guilty one (I think could be https://github.com/ubuntu/gnome-shell-extension-appindicator/commit/f57dbd5792a93fb28b6145d629e527b194fb6ab3 but I can't reproduce the issue myself)

I can report that in v53 for Haguichi indicator menu items do not show up again after being hidden ("connect/disconnect" menu items are hidden or shown depending on state).

Also disabled (insensitive) menu items are not enabled again when state changes ("join/create network" menu items are disabled when disconnected and should be re-enabled when connection is established).

I think could be f57dbd5

That sounds very much related.

I'm also experiencing this with Dropbox. Menu does not appear when clicking the Dropbox icon in the top bar.

Here's a log:
