Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***
* What led up to the situation?
The problem has started to occur after upgrade to Debian 13.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
In my Xfce Power Manager settings I have "When power button is pressed:" option set to "Hibernate". I pressed a power button with expectation that my system will proceed with hibernation as it was doing on Debian 12. However, now on a power button press, a pop-up dialog is shown with the following text instead:
"An application is currently disabling the automatic sleep. Doing this action now may damage the working state of this application. Are you sure you want to hibernate the system?"
* What was the outcome of this action?
For hibernation to take place, the user has to press "Yes".
* What outcome did you expect instead?
I would expect that the dialog is not shown and system hibernates
immediately. This behavior looks like a bug due to two reasons:
1. When I press hibernate option in a Whisker menu, the dialog is not shown and
system hibernates right away.
2. The hibernation preserves the state of RAM to a disk, which
actually prevents a damage that might occur when the power is
turned off accidentally, so this message doesn't make sense.
