Package: xdg-utils Version: 1.1.3-4.1ubuntu3~22.04.1 Severity: important Tags: patch upstream
I’m the upstream maintainer of Caffeine, and noticed that it was no longer working on my GNOME 42 system. Of course, the actual bug was in xdg-screensaver: until recently, gnome-screensaver ran on GNOME systems, and xdg-screensaver used that. Now, it needs to use the freedesktop DBus API. Unfortunately, the freedesktop-related code in xdg-screensaver was also buggy (at least, it didn’t match the DBus API spec). Fortunately, the fix was easy, as the code used to handle gnome-screensaver can. with small modifications, be used for a correct implementation. I have provided the fix as a Merge Request to xdg-utils: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xdg/xdg-utils/-/merge_requests/62 I am filing this bug report because I know that xdg-utils upstream is slow (Debian already has a patch of mine in its packaging from 2016). -- Package-specific info: Desktop environment: XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=GNOME -- System Information: Debian Release: bookworm/sid APT prefers jammy-updates APT policy: (500, 'jammy-updates'), (500, 'jammy-security'), (500, 'jammy'), (100, 'jammy-backports') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 5.15.0-52-generic (SMP w/4 CPU threads) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_WARN, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_GB Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled xdg-utils depends on no packages.
