Binary package hint: unity-2d-panel
Indicators fail to load in unity-2d. The following lines appear in .xsession-errors:
(<unknown>:14941): libindicator-WARNING **: File '/usr/lib/indicators/4/libapplication.so' does not exist.
(<unknown>:14941): libindicator-CRITICAL **: indicator_object_get_entries: assertion `INDICATOR_IS_OBJECT(io)' failed

The likely culprit:
unity-2d/panel/applets/indicator/indicator.c:#define INDICATOR_DIR "/usr/lib/indicators/4/"
% tree /usr/lib/indicators
/usr/lib/indicators
└── 5
├── libapplication.so
├── libappmenu.so
├── libdatetime.so
├── libme.so
├── libmessaging.so
├── libsession.so
└── libsoundmenu.so
If I patch the /usr/bin/unity-2d-panel binary to point to /usr/lib/indicators/5/ the indicators work again.

yes I have seen this for a few days, but thought it might be my system but its because unity-2d was not adapted to the libindicator change.
