Revert runCommand change
SUMMARY
When a command is set and runCommand is enabled, nothing is executed. It
doesn't appear from strace that anything is even attempted to be run.
This appears to have been introduced in commit
47381a65debe01a0a015e1aa423cbb78af649648 (in applets/timer/plugin/timer.cpp).
I can confirm reverting that change still builds and fixes the issue for me,
trivial patch attached.
Not sure if this change was a mistake, why it breaks things, or if reverting it
will have other side effects.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Run the timer applet
2. Configure Timer -> Advanced -> "After timer completes" -> enable and set
command
3. Start countdown
OBSERVED RESULT
No observable command run, nothing in logs, strace shows no fork
EXPECTED RESULT
Command is run
