Hi, thanks for the bug report. Can you provide the upstream bug report on this? I can't reproduce with: notify-send '<like this> &this' on xfce4-notifyd 0.4.1-1 so maybe it's been fixed meanwhile. > > Here is a (redacted) example of an entry I've seen in my logs due to user > activity.

More likely it's just output to stdout/stderr and systemd forwards it to journal and the syslog. -- Yves-Alexis
