Package: python3-pyqt5 Version: 5.7+dfsg-5 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
my app uses a QSystemTrayIcon. When run manually, it works fine. When run on startup, the icon often (if not always) does not show up, although the program is running (appears in top). It seems related to those issues: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5290611/ https://stackoverflow.com/questions/18213775/ People suggest this happens because the application is started before the system tray is available. However, Qt docs state that: http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qsystemtrayicon.html "If the system tray is unavailable when a system tray icon is constructed, but becomes available later, QSystemTrayIcon will automatically add an entry for the application in the system tray if the icon is visible." I did check that by removing the system tray applet and it does not seem to work as expected. Systray available Start app -> icon shows up Remove systray Add systray -> icon shows up Alright. However: Systray available Remove systray Start app Add systray -> icon does not show up Not what I'd expect from the docs. I'm using Mate as a DE. I recently moved to Stretch and this started to happen. I don't think it ever occured on Jessie, although it could be because the starting order was different and for some reason the systray was always available when the app would start. This occured on PyQt4. I moved to PyQt5 and it is still an issue. I don't think it is a Mate issue. I don't think I'm using QSystemTrayIcon the wrong way. In case it helps, here is the code: https://github.com/lafrech/gbirthday/blob/pyQt5_python3_port/src/gbirthday/statusicon.py I can't tell whether this is a Qt or a PyQt issue, so I'm reporting against PyQt as this is my entry point. Please ask for more information if needed. Or tell me on which door to knock if this is not the right place. Thanks.
