After an upgrade to Python 3.11, you need to rebuild this package (and all Python packages in the AUR).

The function "Disable screensaver for..." does not work. Screensaver never gets re-enabled.

Latest version now auto-activates when a fullscreen window is detected (I'll make this configurable in the next version if people want to disable this behaviour).

@chmurli: All dependencies fixed. Thanks.

Typo in pkgbuild, should be python-docopt (no python-docopts).

Yes, the intention is to carry on the proyect in a similar spirit to the original one - systray icon, being able to add specific programs, and detecting those that commonly don't disable the screensaver but "should" (eg: Flash). Flash detection was broken, so it's not working right now, but I'll get to it when I have time. This specific package won't diverge really and mostly stay as-is. Actual work will be made on caffeine-ng, which is the fork I've started.

If someone could continue this work and improve it over time somewhat (better flash playing detection and let Caffeine be in affect only if a stream or a video is actually playing - and maybe add most commonly used video players to the Preferences list for out of the box use) and not go the way the original was made. That would be a good thing for all of us :)

Please add python-docopt as dependency, it is required.
