Hello @yochananmarqos. Remove the backslash after --no-appindicator.

Please note that builds with --no-cef are not supported and might not work at all. This option is now kept only to run CI without CEF.

Aha, a typo! Thanks for pointing it out. I was just getting started and realized I would need CEF.
