Apparently, mate-notification-daemon checks whether a screensaver is running before showing a notification, and it hardcodes the mate-screensaver’s D-Bus interface org.mate.ScreenSaver instead of using some other cross-DE method.I’d also like to add that failing to talk to mate-screensaver, it ends up not showing a notification at all, making itself unusable for its primary purpose.The hard dependency on mate-screensaver is also not declared in the dependencies.-- Cheers, Andrej
we won't get this changed for bullseye, but long term... do you have a patch to propose to upstream?
