Comment 3 David GEIGER 2021-03-30 21:46:33 CEST 
Yes it should be fixed with the new updated package.
Comment 4 andre salaun 2021-03-31 17:28:40 CEST 
caffeine-indicator (2.9.8-1) runs well
Comment 5 David GEIGER 2021-03-31 21:07:18 CEST 

Advisory:
========================

Our current caffeine still uses old appindicator3 which was removed in Mageia 8 in favor to a new fork as ayatana-appindicator3 developed by Canonical.
So this update fixes this issue updating to a new release which is ported to ayatana-appindicator3.

========================

Packages in 8/core/updates_testing:
========================
caffeine-2.9.8-1.mga8.noarch.rpm
