Bug ID: 758677
Summary: GtkStatusIcon: Don't silently fail under Wayland
breaking some applications
Classification: Platform
Product: gtk+
Version: 3.18.x
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Normal
Component: Backend: Wayland
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
QA Contact: [email protected]
CC: [email protected], [email protected]
GNOME version: ---
some applications use(d) to minimize or close to tray. GtkStatusIcon is
deprecated in Gtk 3.14. Using a GtkStatusIcon silently fails if Gtk is running
with a wayland backend. This breaks some applications (e.g. redshift, exaile,
transmission, …).
Can you please add some code to not fail silently?
Gtk3 could e.g. display a warning message that tray icons are not supported. I
know that this is not a good idea, but I don't have something better.
