Did some small tweaks on the status icon.
- Removed dependency on Python dbus bindings (they where not used)
- Removed external dependency on icon
Updated script attached. There is still not much point in it I guess. People might as well add a launcher to the panel for the same functionality...
About a tracker icon: Tracker really needs something leet. If you ask me a looking glass with an arrow does not cut it. In deskbar we have a lightning comming out of the looking glass, that is leet. Everybody likes lightning! Seriously; I don't have any good ideas right now, but a good icon is good branding.
Cheers,
Mikkel
