+Building the systray in linux will produce some `-Wdeprecated-declarations` warnings, like that:

 bitmask-systray assumes that you already have bitmaskd running.

+Standalone
+-------------

+Is also posible to compile the systray to be standalone (don't depend on bitmask):
+```
+  $ go build -tags standalone

+It still requires a helper and openvpn installed to work. For linux the helper is
