No indicator icons for qt apps

[Linus]

On a freshly installed ubuntu 17.10 the indicator/topicons will not show up for qt apps, like mumble.

This is fixed by installing the sni-qt package.

Since it's not common knowledge to install that package manually, maybe it should be installed by default on the 18.04 release to have more applications working out of the box with the indicators/topicons?

Reassigned to ubuntu-meta since dependency from the ubuntu-desktop package would cause sni-qt to be installed by default.

Thank you for reporting this problem. Ubuntu 17.10 is no longer supported, and I believe this issue is resolved in later releases by virtue of indicators no longer being used as the standard interface on the Ubuntu desktop. If you still see problems, please reopen this bug.
