Description:
Xpra uses 'which' to find its own binary when connecting to a remote server. If 'which' is not installed Xpra will claim it cannot find its own binary and give the Error that Xpra is likely not installed.

If 'which' could be added to the required dependencies, this issue can be avoided for Archlinux hosts. Of course this should be fixed upstream as it might affect other distros.

Additional info:
* package version(s) 4.2-1
* config and/or log files etc.
* link to upstream bug report, if any
https://github.com/Xpra-org/xpra/issues/3216

Steps to reproduce:
Connect to any xpra server by SSH that does not have 'which' installed.
This task depends upon

The PR in the upstream issue was merged, so this should be fixed in the next release of xpra.
