wicd system tray indicator on 16.04

Question

the wicd system tray indicator question has been asked over and over again, but none of the solutions worked on 16.04.

on 14.04 it appears to be fixed with this but it still doesn't show on 16.04 even though it works for other applications.

And i get this error when starting: wicd-client

AttributeError: 'IndicatorTrayIconGUI' object has no attribute 'set_from_name'

Is there any way? Thank you!

This worked for me: install python-appindicator

sudo apt-get install python-appindicator

and then reboot.

Additionally, install python3-notify2 for network notifications

sudo apt-get install python3-notify2
