---------------
gnome-settings-daemon (3.6.4-0ubuntu10) saucy; urgency=low

  [ Martin Pitt ]
  * Drop 51_lock_screen_on_suspend.patch: Superseded by handling this key in
    gnome-screensaver. With that, g-screensaver mirrors what's being done in
    g-shell, and avoids patching settings-daemon.

  [ Sebastien Bacher ]
  * debian/patches/git_housekeeping_ignore_list.patch:
    - correctly handle ignore list for disk space notifications (lp: #881376)
  * debian/patches/git_glib_get_xdg_dirs.patch:
    - use glib to get xdg dirs (rather than reading the environment)
  * debian/patches/git_sound_not_polling.patch:
    - don't poll on non existant directories

Title:
  "Low disk space" warning popping up repeatedly.

Bug description:
  On Ubuntu 11.10 Oneiric Ocelot.
  Since that upgrade, I repeatedly get the warning

  "Low Disk Space"
  "The volume "..." has only [..] MB disk space remaining.
  This is for a few Windows partitions on a multiboot machine, which I mount by 
default on Linux startup.

  The problem:
  - I could not care less about disk space on these partitions, while on Linux. 
I want to take care of them while on Windows.
  - The dialog is showing up repeatedly for the same disk.
  - It's a disruptive popup dialog, instead of being a more subtle bubble 
notification (this is being discussed in a feature request somewhere on 
launchpad).
  - The "Don't show any warnings again for this file system" does not have any 
effect. Yes, it does change a setting somewhere in system settings, but the 
popup will show up nevertheless.
  - Trying to change the threshold or the exclude directories via system 
settings did not help either.
  - I did not find how to uninstall or disable this new "feature".

  This is just one of the many things that make the new 11.10 a horrible
  experience for me.
