Package: dunst
Version: 0.2.0-1
Severity: important

The dunst package does not have
"Provides: notification-daemon"
set.

Other notification daemons like notify-osd have this set so they meet the
dependency requriements of packages that check for a notification-daemon.

Beacause this is not set in the dunst package dunst cannot be used to replace
another notification-daemon if the user has a package that depends on
notification-daemon installed.

In my case the packages with that caused this were

mail-notification
mail-notification-evolution

I encountered no problems after making my own dunst package with "Provides:
notification-daemon" set.
