Package: libqt5widgets5
Version: 5.11.3+dfsg1-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

I have recently upgraded to Buster, and I found that Qt applications don't show
their system tray icons. I use Xfce4. There's no problem with GTK apps, e. g.
icons of claws-mail, jami and parcellite are shown, but icons of Qt apps, in
particular psi-plus and hp-systray, don't appear. This does not depend on the
time when application was started: I can't see tray icons if it was autostarted
with session or later manually.

Thanks for testing in a clean system!

D-Bus tray is used not only in KDE, but also in other sessions. E.g. I think
you can use it in Xfce if you have xfce4-indicator-plugin installed. Also
there is an extension for GNOME Shell that can show D-Bus tray icons.

And D-Bus tray specification is superior to the old X11 tray, so Qt tries to
use it if it's available.

So I think there is no bug here, and I am closing it.
