Hi! I would like to use "cleanly" another notification daemon in my KDE environment (dunst to be precise, because I like the small size of its boxes and the possibility to replay notifications). However, I haven't found any clean way to do that yet. dunst is started early in my X session, but as I understand from the code in plasma-workspace https://sources.debian.net/src/plasma-workspace/4:5.6.4-2/dataengines/notifications/notificationsengine.cpp/?hl=91#L43 any existing notification daemon is killed and replaced by the plasma one. Is there a way to tell KDE to not deal with nofications at all and let another program do it? I haven't found any, and for the moment, the only solution I found is to comment (most of) the source code in the NotificationsEngine constructor and NotificationsEngine::registerDBusService() in that file and rebuild the package. Is there a hidden option I missed, or a magic dbus invocation command I could use? I take the opportunity to thank a lot the KDE team for their wonderful work, and for making me happy to use my computer. Cheers, Cédric P.S. : note that it worked most of the time with one of my machines without manual intervention, but it was maybe a bug :)
