Lol, that's exactly what's already happening.  There are two
codepaths, one of which is maintained by upstream Tomboy, and one of
which is occasionally maintained by Canonical.

This bug is one of the "extra bugs" you mention.

Adding a hidden gconf option to let users switch back to the code path
that is supported by upstream would, in point of fact, be quite
trivial.

As it happens, the reason I never accepted this patch upstream is
because I think the tray stuff should all be refactored into add-ins,
so that users can pick which they use.  I haven't had time to do the
work, so I haven't taken the appindicator patch, and here we are.

Bug description:
Binary package hint: tomboy

This is a recent regression in Maverick.

As of today, when I click the Tomboy panel applet, I see ten notes listed, but no text next to them in the menu.  I can click one of them and it opens the note correctly, and the notes come up in the search dialog correctly too, they just have no text in the menu.

When I start it from a terminal I see

[INFO 10:23:27.390] Initializing Mono.Addins
(Tomboy:4238): Gtk-WARNING **: Inserting action group 'Notebooks' into UI manager which already has a group with this name
[WARN 10:24:39.436] libproxy not installed

I don't know if that's related.  Quitting and restarting tomboy doesn't help.
