Package: gcalcli
Version: 2.4.2-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

When upgraded to current version (2.4.2-2) the default command for 
remind changed to notify-send. It used to be gxmessage, which IMHO, 
is simpler to have it working.

It's indicated that one can choose which command use to remind 
option and, my first shot was something like

/usr/bin/gcalcli remind 10 'gxmessage -display :0 -center -geometry 280x140 
-title "Ding, Ding, Ding!" %s'

It runs fine when I run it on command line but fails to work on my 
crontab (and it used to). Is it possible to revert to gxmessage as default 
command? If not, can you give some adivce on hoe should be the entry on my 
crontab? Currently it looks like 

*/10 * * * * /usr/bin/gcalcli remind 10 'gxmessage -display :0 -center 
-geometry 280x140 -title "Ding, Ding, Ding!" %s'

Thanks in advance,
Alexandre.
