Subject: xchat-systray: deprecated by xchat/should hide xchat's tray icon
Package: xchat-systray,xchat
Version: 2.4.5-6
Severity: minor

Hello,

xchat has now a built in "icon in tray" feature and having installed
xchat-systray will mean that there will be two xchat icons in the tray
and they have different functionalities.

It would be better if either of the following would be done:
- the xchat would suppress its icon in the tray when xchat-systray is
  installed (and also expand the functionality to match xchat-systray's),
- xchat-systray suppresses xchat's icon
- xchat conflicts with xchat-systray (although, there isn't actually any
  breakage, so a conflict would be too much)

See the comparison of the two menus:
