I'm also affected by this bug. The icon does not show up and when I hit the close button pidgin exists directly. With older KDE versions the close button just sent pidgin to the tray.
Would be great if this gets fixed :) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to pidgin in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1448681 Title: no systray icon in kde plasma 5 Status in pidgin package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: no systray icon in kde plasma 5 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 15.04 Package: pidgin 1:2.10.9-0ubuntu8 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.19.0-15.15-generic 3.19.3 Uname: Linux 3.19.0-15-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia_uvm nvidia ApportVersion: 2.17.2-0ubuntu1 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: KDE Date: Sun Apr 26 16:45:41 2015 InstallationDate: Installed on 2010-08-17 (1712 days ago) InstallationMedia: Kubuntu 10.04 LTS "Lucid Lynx" - Release amd64 (20100427) SourcePackage: pidgin UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to vivid on 2015-04-25 (0 days ago) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pidgin/+bug/1448681/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
