Hide livepatch indicator in top panel

  • 772

After updating Ubuntu packages today, I see a new livepatch indicator in the top-panel:

livepatch indicator

How can I hide it? I tried running sudo apt remove indicator-livepatch, but there's no such package. When I go to livepatch settings, I don't see an option to hide the indicator, just a button for sign-in.

indicator canonical-livepatch

    From Ubuntu's Reddit:

    1. Run dconf-editor.
    2. Navigate to com > ubuntu > update-notifier.
    3. Set show-livepatch-status-icon to off.

    Programmatically you can run this within terminal for an equal effect.

    gsettings set com.ubuntu.update-notifier show-livepatch-status-icon false
