Optional dependency libappindicator-gtk3 is missing.

Output from waybar:

[warning] For a functional tray you must have libappindicator-* installed and export XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=Unity

Reason for closing:  Not a bug
Additional comments about closing:  Waybar already has a dependency on libappindicator-gtk3, so there would be no need for an optional dependency. Setting XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=Unity is not something we're going to do as that has potential to really screw with things.

This seems to be an issue for me with waybar 0.9.8-1 and libappindicator-gtk3 12.10.0.r296-1. The issue seems to persist with waybar-git from the AUR.

Hi, kevr! I'm a little confused: Waybar already has a dependency on libappindicator-gtk3, so there would be no need for an optional dependency. Setting XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=Unity is not something we're going to do as that has potential to really screw with things.

Am I missing something about what this ticket was supposed to say?
