adept-notifier will appear and disappear from the tray (the green ball)
it is a bug in adept-notifier, not spefic to ksystray.  However, when
there are packages available, the icon will appear with the icon that
indicates there are package updates available.  Since I run Sid, it is
almost always there.  I like that it says how many packages are
available, so for one or two, I don't bother taking the time to upgrade,
unless of course I know a bug that is bugging me is fixed.

No question that there are bugs in KDE.  There are bugs in most
programs, but unless they get reported, they will stay bugs.  3.5.6
fixes many bugs, but Etch is frozen at 3.5.5, and I seriously doubt a
backport for it.  One can hope.
