Mysterious error notice: "No such file or directory: 'notify-send'"

[mlncn]

[Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'notify-send'

Full error traceback written to log.

Two questions:

1. Is this message from scli or signal-cli?
2. …where do i find the log?

Sorry and thanks!!

Aha! Found the log in .local/share/scli/log

And looks like this error has happened a lot without me noticing.

It looks like you're missing notify-send, which is part of libnotify, a library for sending desktop notifications. notify-send is in the libnotify-bin package in Debian. Alternatively, you could instruct scli to use another notification command via flag or config file (see the code here).

Awesome, thank you! Total download size for libnotify-bin 17KB :grin:
