Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-settings-daemon

So, this bug is that when one has a full disk, multiple warning windows are opened. I had a full disk, and while aptitude was cleaning out packages to free space 5 more warning windows opened.

This gets in the way of actually cleaning up the space.

I suggest that it should only open a window if the prior one has been closed (and presumably disk analysis has been closed too)

      (Federico Mena Quintero)
    - Add support for Synaptics touchpads (Matthias Clasen)
    - Don't spawn more than one syncdaemon (Matthias Clasen)
    - Depend on gnome-desktop >= 2.26.3 (Rodrigo Moya)
    - Update gnome-volume-control code from master (Bastien Nocera)
    - Fix order of arguments to strstr (Federico Mena Quintero)
    - Depend on libxklavier 4.0 (Sergey V. Udaltsov)
    - Remove libglade dependency from media-keys and keyboard plugins
      (Felix Riemann)
  * debian/control{.in}:
    - Bump libgnome-desktop-dev build-dependency.
    - Migrate libxklavier12-dev build-dep to libxklavier-dev and bump
      version requirement.
    - Build-depend on libpulse-dev.
  * Refreshed patches to apply cleanly again.
  * Dropped 07_use_gstreamer_volume.patch to use the Pulseaudio
    volume control rather than the old GstMixer interface.
  * Dropped 08_extra_touchpad_options.patch - fixed upstream now.
  * debian/gnome-settings-daemon.install:
    - Updated to correctly install *.ui files and control-center
      xml file.
  * debian/patches/50_ldsm_notification.patch:
    - Upstream change to implement the new low disk space warning
      (Fixes LP: #337441, LP: #390504 and LP: #396864).
  * debian/patches/60_ldsm_notification_fixup.patch:
    - Fix some bugs in the upstream implementation of the last patch,
      eg, I made the assumption that all mounts with a device node
      not beginning with /dev could be ignored as a way of filtering out
      uninteresting volumes. This is not so, as the GUnixMountEntry for
      the root filesystem can have "rootfs" as the device node, and
      we don't want to filter the root filesystem out.
    - Make sure that no warning is shown for volumes with more than 2GB
      free space by default.
