Bug still exists in Ubuntu 14.04. A year passed and still no changed? This bug makes HUD just useless in most situations. If there's not going to be any fix soon I would really need to consider switching to Gnome Shell...
Anyway I tried installing older package, with no luck really. HUD launched, but searching for anything just didn't work. Tried this one https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-unity/+archive/daily- build/+build/4461354/+files/hud_13.04.0daily13.04.03-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb . Needed to remove libbamf3-1 from require dependences. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to hud in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1165420 Title: Unable to access indicators from HUD Status in Ayatana Design: Confirmed Status in Unity HUD: Confirmed Status in “hud” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: In Ubuntu 12.10 I was able to use HUD to access Messaging menu and Gwibber's "Update Status" option there, making status updates to Twitter easy and fast. I could also use HUD to change my status in Empathy from Available to Busy and vice-versa. In Ubuntu 13.04 Beta HUD no longer finds the "Update Status" option when typing "Update Status" or "Update" Also writing "Available" "Away" or "Busy" no longer gives any results. Other indicators however are accessible and I can use HUD to Suspend my computer or to view Skype status or Ubuntu one indicator options. Repeating: 1. Press alt key to start HUD 2. Write "Update status" or "Available" What was expected: HUD should have shown options ether from Gwibber to Update Status or Empathy to change status to Available both available from the messaging indicator. What happened: HUD didn't find any results. Notes: I have Ubuntu 13.04 Beta 64bit upgraded from Ubuntu 12.10 64bits and I'm using proprietary fglrx drivers.
