Description of problem: When I launch liferea RSS reader it doesn't show it's icon in system tray, there is entry in the tray and you can click on it every normal operation works fine. Temporary solution will be to uncheck Tools -> Preferences -> GUI "Show a status icon in the notification area (system tray)." close Preferences window, and open it again and check same option to enable it. This works but only for this instance of application (after application restart it is there without icon). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): liferea-1.8.10-2.fc18.x86_64 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install liferea 2. launch application 3. Actual results: Entry in the system tray without icon (hard to know if it is there or not, until you hover it with a mouse) Expected results: Entry with a regular liferea icon in the system tray. Additional info: Tested this with a "fresh" liferea config directory (moved my ~/.liferea_1.8)
This looks like a duplicate of bug #525702 (which itself has been submitted upstream). Given the signal/noise ratio of the other bug, I'm in favour of making it a dupe of this one.
It can be, I really don't know, I searched for reported bugs against liferea, and found that one before reporting this, but I wasn't sure if it is the same problem, I remember those incomplete icons in 3.4.x (on f17). Same workaround works for both, but in this case looks like a bigger problem because there is no icon at all.
I'm quite convinced that this is the same bug which manifests in different ways in Gnome 3.4 or Gnome 3.6 . I've reproduced the bug on F-18 beta and updated the upstream bug.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 18's end of life. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 18 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 18's end of life. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
