Yeah, this is already fixed upstream and will be gone in the next build.

Comment 3 Henrique Martins 2020-11-01 15:33:51 UTC
And when is the next build going to be available? 

I have a cron job for user apache that runs every minute and generates lines like

 1x Unknown key name 'DBusActivatable' in section 'Desktop Entry'
 1x Queued start job for default target Main User Target.
 1x gnome-systemd-autostart-condition not found
 1x kde-systemd-start-condition not found
23x Not generating service for XDG autostart

for a total of 27 lines per run.  

As this runs 1440 times per day, it is getting pretty ridiculous.

Is there a way to silence those?

> Is there a way to silence those?

You could try

1) sudo chmod -x /usr/lib/systemd/user-generators/systemd-xdg-autostart-generator

or

2) sudo mv /usr/lib/systemd/user-generators/systemd-xdg-autostart-generator /usr/lib/systemd/user-generators/systemd-xdg-autostart-generator.save

Comment 7 Edgar Hoch 2020-12-07 23:30:22 UTC
It is fine that it is fixed in a newer version, but it doesn't
