Description:
When I right click a tray icon that uses the new dbus protocol (in KDE), the menu that appears flickers for a few seconds before appearing completely.

This would just be a minor annoyance if it did not amplify an upstream plasma bug, that causes memory leaks whes using icons realized with the new tray.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=248268

This way, a single right click on the Kopete icon causes plasma RAM usage to increase of about 50MB

There is no upstream bug report associated with this, most likely because this library had seen very little use before KDE 4.5, but it appears to have been solved upstream in version 0.5.0


Additional info:
* package version 0.3.3


Steps to reproduce:
right click on the Kopete tray icon, watch the menu flicker, and plasma RAM consumption go way up.
This task depends upon
