What happens

Arch has renamed libappindicator-gtk3 to libappindicator, which declaresProvides/Replaces/Conflicts: libappindicator-gtk3. pacman -S resolves the old
name through the provide and installs libappindicator, but omarchy-pkg-add's
post-install check then runs pacman -Q libappindicator-gtk3, which doesn't resolve
provides, so it prints:
Error: Package 'libappindicator-gtk3' did not install
and exits 1. The installer has no set -e, so Dropbox is still installed and
started, but the user sees a red failure for a package that is in fact installed.omarchy-pkg-missing libappindicator-gtk3 likewise keeps reporting it as missing.
Expected
No error, e.g. by requesting libappindicator in the installer.
