xdg-screensaver script does not follow freedesktop spec

Submitted by Kishore Gopalakrishnan

Assigned to Portland Bugs

Link to original bug (#102124)

Description

Downstream bug report: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=381160#c4

(From comment 4 of above report) "xdg-screensaver is a script that does different things for each desktop.

The one that tries to use the standard fd.o interface is just completely wrong.

From the spec: "Inhibition will stop when the UnInhibit function is called, or the application disconnects from the D-Bus session bus (which usually happens upon exit)." https://people.freedesktop.org/~hadess/idle-inhibition-spec/ch03.html

dbus-send (called from the xdg-screensaver script) exits immediately after sending

We follow the fd.o spec so correctly remove the inhibition.

xdg-screensaver needs fixing, not plasma."

I am using version 1.1.2, but I could not fill that in the version field, as the option was missing.
