It always used to work. I had this lately

@alfredo.ardito That's odd. Was this a one-time thing, or is it consistent?

Caffeine not executing anymore.
I uninstalled and reinstalled it again without errors. When I run it it halts displaying the following error:

@Demeter That behaviour is triggered if you have app indicators in your system (rather than a classic systray).

It's only active if libappindicator-gtk3 is installed.

Is it possible to switch caffeine just with left click on icon? Now works just popup menu via right click, then Enable - Disable... (MATE)

Yup, will update the pkgrel in a bit.

@WhyNotHugo Is a version bump appropriate because of the python upgrade?

Batou commented on 2018-02-16 09:05 (UTC)

Is there a way to disable INFO messages? My .xsession-errors is littered with messages of the type:

INFO:caffeine.core:XorgInhibitor is applicable, running it.

@WhyNotHugo: apparently, it was related to a conflict in my locale settings. In short, I had a script that set fr_CH instead of fr_FR as my default language. Fr_CH is not well handled in Plasma. Since I've deleted it, caffeine-ng opens normally.
