screen-brightness over- and undershoot effects not triggered in notification-bubble

[Mirco Müller]

Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager

While the notify-osd rendered notification-bubbles are now correctly triggered upon changing screen-brightness using the special keys on my laptop-keyboard, the throbbing-effect of hitting the min. or max. values are not triggered in the notification-bubble. Further investigation shows that the trigger-values of -1 (for hitting min) and 101 (for hitting max) are not passed from gnome-power-manager to notify-osd (via libnotify). Thus gnome-power-manager/debian/patches/02-notify-osd-support.patch has to be further improved.

The attached patch is the updated/fixed version for gnome-power-manager 2.28.0 fixing the regression of not triggering the throbbing-animation if the user over- or undershoots the screen-brightness value via the special keys on their (laptop-) keyboads.

[Mirco Müller (macslow)]

I mark it as "fix committed" due to the attached patch you see above.

Note, that notify-osd 0.9.23 needs to be installed for this to take effect. If not the throbbing-animation will not be triggered.
