Run a program using pystray such as emailproxy

Actual result:

Tray icon does not react

Expected result:

Tray icon reacts


Pystray is a Python library to add a tray icon. According to its description it is aimed at Ubuntu and Gnome, but maybe there's a workaround for window managers, such as AwesomeWM as well?

Supported platforms are Linux under Xorg

it's written that it supports native xorg tray

if not then not

Thank you for your assistance. Since Gnome and Ubuntu also used Xorg, and it does not work under Awesome and other Window managers, I asked rather for a work around.
