Recently signal deskto was updated to 1.32 and on Xfce tray icon was no longer working. Turns out the latest signal switched to electron 8, which now uses status notifier. At least on Xfce, it requires xfce-extra/xfce4-statusnotifier-plugin. I'm not sure if it should be put in depend, but at least a warning upon package installation would be useful. Relevant links: https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Desktop/issues/3974 https://github.com/electron/electron/issues/21445 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install signal-desktop-bin-1.32.1 2. Start it with this command "signal-desktop --use-tray-icon --start-in-tray" 3. No tray icon if xfce-extra/xfce4-statusnotifier-plugin not installed. Actual Results: No tray icon if xfce-extra/xfce4-statusnotifier-plugin not installed. Expected Results: Tray icon is working and ebuild has all necessary dependencies.
