The icon is present and working in the app launcher, only missing in the panel.

After doing some googeling:

This is because the window created by the application is not associated with the shortcut used to start the application. In Ubuntu 22.04 and earlier, you’ll get duplicated app icons on the dock. However, in Ubuntu 24.04 it falls back to the executable icon (the gear icon) instead.

Thanks for the link. If you modify the eduvpn desktop file to:

[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=eduVPN
Comment=a GUI to connect to eduVPN using OpenVPN and WireGuard
Exec=eduvpn-gui
Icon=org.eduvpn.client
Terminal=false
StartupWMClass=org.eduvpn.client

does it then give an icon in the dash?
