[Bug 1569682] [NEW] Notify replace_id is ignored by notify-OSD

 

Public bug reported:

As per Notification Desktop Specifications and NotifyOSD Specs², if a
notification provides a "replace_id", and a notification with that id is
shown or in queue, we should replace that with the last one.

This is something that notify-osd doesn't do. Breaking the protocol
expectations.
