No tray icon with i3
Hello, I'm having a problem with the PIA app on a debian machine. I'm using i3 as my window manager, and when running ./pia.sh the tray icon doesn't appear, which means I can't connect at all. Is there any library/package it relies on that I should install? I never had this problem with either Gnome or Cinnamon, so I guess there's something missing that prevents the tray icon from being displayed.
Edit: I noticed that the installation script ran the following command:
apt-get install -y libxss1 libappindicator1
Could a dev maybe tell me if this is related to the tray icon?
Edit 2: Well, I fixed it after discovering that pia.sh was in fact not working because of missing shared objects, so I had to install libnss3 and libgconf-2-4. I'd still like to know why they weren't automatically installed at first if the programs depends on them...
At least that explains why it worked when I installed the gnome package since both are installed as dependencies.

I can't figure out how to start via command line without running the installer again.
