            Bug ID: 102124
           Summary: xdg-screensaver script does not follow freedesktop
                    spec
           Product: Portland
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: Other
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: medium
         Component: xdg-utils
          Assignee: portland-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: kishore96 at gmail.com

Downstream bug report: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=381160#c4

(From comment #4 of above report)
"xdg-screensaver is a script that does different things for each desktop.

The one that tries to use the standard fd.o interface is just completely wrong.

>From the spec:
"Inhibition will stop when the UnInhibit function is called, or the application
disconnects from the D-Bus session bus (which usually happens upon exit)."
https://people.freedesktop.org/~hadess/idle-inhibition-spec/ch03.html


dbus-send (called from the xdg-screensaver script) exits immediately after
sending

We follow the fd.o spec so correctly remove the inhibition.

xdg-screensaver needs fixing, not plasma."

I am using version 1.1.2, but I could not fill that in the version field, as
the option was missing.
