[PyQt] Problems with QSystemTrayIcon KDE 5

Thu Jan 8 15:30:11 GMT 2015

I dont know then... I've installed Qt5.4 (PyQt5.4 and so on like i said, in
a different path, to no mess with Qt distro installation.) but does not
work... even the check of QSystemTrayIcon says that there is no system tray
available.

:(
