Public bug reported:
When launched on the default gnome desktop, the tray icon does not show
anywhere. Previously (in Ubuntu 17.04) it showed up in the legacy tray
area, and with Topicons Plus installed, showed up in the top bar
accordingly. Now there's no sign of it.
The application does launch and sit in the background, invisible.
Launching again opens the settings. So it is running. It's just the tray
icon that's missing.
This is also affecting enpass 5.5.6, installed from their own repo. That
was also working before the upgrade to 17.10. So this looks like it's
probably something affecting QT apps, as both owncloud-client and enpass
both are. Also corroborating that, the tray icon for Hexchat appears
normally. A GTK application.
Also affected, the testpilotcloud client, installed from their repo. It
too showed this problem.
I tried (from the results of a search) installing sni-qt. It *seemed* to
work once, until a reboot to fix a keyring-not-listening error. Since
then, nothing. Even if it was the solution, it's not in the dependencies
of either package. I don't think it is the solution. libappindicator1
and libappindicator3 are both installed (not manually by me).
The tray icons show up properly when running in Wayland, as observed on
a different computer running the same software (upgraded to Ubuntu
17.10). Logging out there and logging in under Xorg also resulted in the
icons not showing up. Logging back in using Wayland and they return just
fine. So this appears to be Xorg specific, not affecting Wayland. But
again, it was working under 17.04. (This machine, running with nVidia,
cannot use Wayland, or I'd be content with that solution.)
