Dear Maintainer,

The system tray icon of qshutdown dosn't appear. At the session startup, it can
randomly be totally hidden, or occupy its place in the system tray, but without
icon (just the systray background). In the second case, it's possible to click
in the empty space to obtain qshutdown menu, but not in the first case.

With qshutdown configured to shutdown the computer at the same hour every days,
this can make difficult to prevent the shutdown, except during the last minute
when the window pop.

This append on a fresh Debian stable installation with xfce.

Dear Florian Birée,

Sorry for not taking the time to answer here.
Actually, the issue you mentioned is not a problem with the application
itself but its framework Qt.

Since the Qt5 and the Debian version you were using are very old now, I
want to close this issue.
Feel free to reopen or create a new issue if needed.

Best regards,

Christian
