Re: [Bug 1826053] Re: Notify send is unreadable

 

No, at the moment I did the Ubuntu-bug, I did not remember the name of 
the package, so I used the wrong package name.

However I did use notify-send to send a report of the boot time. See the 
next script:

systemd-analyze | grep "=" | cut -c 20-80 | while read OUTPUT; do 
notify-send -t 6000 "Boot: $OUTPUT"; done

and this display and the display of all notifications is garbled.

I do not see the same garbling when I install the system on the real 
hardware,  so it might be related to interfacing with Virtualbox.
