I have to use Skype and can't see its tray icon after update from plasma-workspace-4.11.17 to plasma-desktop-5.2.1.

See details here: http://blog.martin-graesslin.com/blog/2014/03/system-tray-in-plasma-next/

Please report against your distribution to provide the required packages I mentioned in my blog post.

OK, already figured it out. Thanks!

It's on its way to getting fixed in Gentoo, but there is still some work left to do unless you want to rebuild half of your system. Because sni-qt[abi_x86_32] is not happy with app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-qtlibs (see https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=516488#c8 -> comment #8) and pulls qt*[abi_x86_32] instead, you have rebuild qtcore, qtgui, qtdbus and all their dependencies for both ABIs. (Of course only if you have a x86_64 system.)
