Bug Description

Binary package hint: pidgin-libnotify

My system uses multi-monitor desktop with certain configuration - see screenshot attached.
In such situation libnotify pop-ups are shown beyond the physical screen. Very likely they calculates their position from upper-right corner of the virtual desktop.
Using a different screen position is not convenient for me.
Please, correct this error. I believe libnotify should use physical screen borders to find its coordinates.
