Package: update-notifier
Version: 0.41.3-1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

The freedesktop.org autostart-spec provides a mechanism by which
per-session daemons can register to be started automatically when a
user logs in. Basically this involves creating a .desktop file for
smart-notifier and dropping it into /etc/xdg/autostart. Further details
are available from <http://standards.freedesktop.org/autostart-spec/>.

This will ensure that smart-notifier is started for ths users of any
desktop environment that implements the spec. Currently this includes
GNOME, KDE (I think) XFCE, Rox and maybe others.

Here's a suitable file:
