libindicator is a dependency of libappindicator, which is very much useful 
if you want a GTK+ app to integrate properly in KDE Plasma by supporting the 
current system tray spec rather than the obsolete XEmbed-based one GTK+ 
itself implements. Sadly, the affected GTK+ apps in Fedora aren't using this 
because their Fedora maintainers are also upstream GNOME maintainers who 
hate the library.
