    shutdown panel button is missing: bug or feature?

    Hello,

    both under oracular and noble I noticed that on top panel, on the right hand side, the shutdown button is no longer there (it used to be on the right of the volume icon). I wonder whether this is a bug or a feature.

    Regards!

    thank you for your response:
    1) laptop with noble, upgrade from 23.10 no icon
    2) vb with fresh installation of oracular inside laptop no icon
    3) desktop after upgrade, button is there

    I will try an installation of oracular in my desktop under vb just to check it out.

    Regards!

    In my opinion, it is a feature. The indicator icons are in a small panel. Click on the small panel and we get a useful subset of System Settings without needing to open the full System Settings utility.

    It is a machine. It is more stupid than we are. It will not stop us from doing stupid things.

    it is a button that is there for many years. It seems that I cannot see it under laptop, while it is there under desktop.

    What happens if you create a new user and log in as that user?

    Just to be clear, are you using the default Ubuntu Desktop (which uses a tweaked GNOME) or something else?

    under laptop
    1) noble host: creating a new user didn't show the shutdown icon
    2) oracular guest: ditto, the shutdown icon is not there

    Host: upgraded ubuntu
    guest: installed ~ a month ago (screenshot attached)

    Regards!
