Still no systray with Plasma 5

Hi there !

I have installed libappindicator-gtk2 and libappindicator-gtk3 :

pacman -Qs libapp
local/libappindicator-gtk2 12.10.0-5
    Allow applications to export a menu into the Unity Menu bar
local/libappindicator-gtk3 12.10.0-5
    Allow applications to export a menu into the Unity Menu bar

Reboot, but I still don't have systray icons with truecrypt for example (gtk2). I see the icon on the top left of the desktop.

Any idea ?

Thank you.

That's not how it works. Installing libappindicator is not going to magically fix the systray icons, the applications need to be recompiled with support for it (if they have it). I doubt that's the case for truecrypt.
