I'm not affected by this [potential - not checked by me] issue, but one guy said he lost icon in notification area on his Ubuntu Mate:

Thanks for reporting here (I don't regularly check reddit). I think this is the same issue as reported here: Static Qt5 in Linux builds #6267

Same for F21. See picture. The red arrow area is the icon .:( bildschirmfoto von 2015-07-13 09 55 39

For Ubuntu, the PPA version (https://launchpad.net/~bitcoin/+archive/ubuntu/bitcoin — expected to be available tomorrow) will likely not have this problem.

Issue confirmed. It is a Qt5.2 upstream issue (related to https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-31762?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel). Version 0.10.2 as well as 0.11.0 and the current master are affected. Building against Qt5.4.2 does solves the problem. Just tested on Ubuntu 15.04.

But did you test with a gitian (or depends) build, or did you build against Ubuntu's Qt? In the latter case you won't see the issue at all. This only happens for static builds.

I can confirm that the tray icon was working with my brief tests with static 5.4/5.5 builds from #6314.
