'boredom?' is the definition.
(I know that boredom can be written as ennui)

I can't explain the remainder of the clue.

(Other definitions for ennui that I've seen before include "World-weariness" , "What's tedious and instils such listlessness" , "Sense of tedium" , "Listless boredom" , "doldrums" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
