- Fall back to AyatanaAppIndicator3 when AppIndicator3 is unavailable (modern distros renamed it). - Replace curl|grep subshells with a socket-based port_open() probe (no shell, no curl-on-PATH dependency). - Guard the bootstrap worker with a bounded 60s wait and surface the real exception via a new OopsAnisette window instead of freezing the splash forever. - Bump anisette_server download to 2.0.0. - shebang -> python3.

What
AyatanaAppIndicator3whenAppIndicator3is unavailable (several modern distros renamed it), so the tray icon loads instead of crashing at import.curl 127.0.0.1:6969 | grep "{"subshells with a dependency-free, no-shellport_open()TCP probe.lol321actualfunction) with a bounded 60s wait that pollsport_open()instead of spinning forever, and surface the real failure via a newOopsAnisetteerror window instead of freezing the splash screen.anisette_serverdownload to2.0.0and addrequestsstatus checks.python3.Why
On distros without
AppIndicator3(or withoutcurlon PATH), the app currently dies at import or hangs on the splash forever with no diagnosable error. This makes bootstrap failures visible and lets the server start cleanly when needed.Tested
Runs under a GTK3 environment where only
AyatanaAppIndicator3is present; tray icon shows and the anisette bootstrap path executes/errors gracefully.
