remmina systray icon from flatpak

I installed a fresh ubuntu 21.04 with gnome3. After less than a week I have installed XFCE (4.16 stock ubuntu).

I use Remmina rdp client from flatpak. Originally with gnome3 the systray mod would show a normal remmina icon. Switching to xfce and the systray shows a blank square for remmina. It works normally with menu and so on, but there is no icon shown.

How can I show the icon? Do i need to change some config, or does xfce need some more code?

ps. I code for food

No idea, sorry.

The Remmina wiki has an entry tracking systray issues, maybe start there and see where it takes you?

There is also this remmina commit from yesterday.

Until the new release is out, you can run the following command to return the icon to the tray:

sudo ln -s /usr/share/icons/hicolor/apps/org.remmina.Remmina-symbolic.svg /usr/share/icons/

...and restart remmina.
