As far as I know, it is used by nm-applet. At one time, I remember
gparted being able to use polkit-gnome as well. I think moving it to a
more generic place (maybe Chapter 12, System Utilities) would be a
smarter option, probably after the release.
And, notification-daemon is not used by GNOME. Maybe we should also
move it
somewhere.
We only reference it in libnotify and lxde-common. There is an
alternative (xfce4-notifyd) for it in both packages. Should we remove
notification-daemon completely? The differences though are the
dependencies. notification-daemon seems simpler.
I do not have a problem moving n-d to Chapter 12, System Utilities.
I don't have a problem with this either, but I will note that the
dependencies for xfce4-notifyd are a lot more complex (it looks like it
needs xfce4-panel and libxfce4ui, which with xfce4-panel is a large
chunk of XFCE that you'd have to build in order to use it. I think
moving notification-daemon to Chapter 12 would be start, but I'd vote
for a change like that after release.
