Ekiga 4.0 releasedEkiga 4.0 releasedPosted Nov 29, 2012 15:22 UTC (Thu) by colo (subscriber, #45564)Parent article: Ekiga 4.0 released
While I very much welcome this new release, I must say that I so _NOT_ get it how "tray icon removal", for the sake of "better GNOME 3 integration", could be considered a good thing. If that means Ekiga is now effectively as (un)usable as Telepathy has become (from what I've seen in GNOME up to 3.4, that is), then well - I'm everything but stoked. :( Let's hope that's just a runtime-only change...

Huh? I'm running Ekiga 4.0 right now and it has a tray icon. I'm using the experimental KDE support though, so perhaps that's got something to do with it.

It is late, however... With gnome-fallback the tray icon is not removed. Also, on systems without notification (e.g. Windows port) and where notifications do not ahve actions, notifications are not used and the call window is shown instead.
