---------------
notify-osd (0.9.8-0ubuntu1) jaunty; urgency=low

  * New upstream version:
    - introduced env. variable NOTIFY_OSD_MUST_NOT_USE_COMPOSITING for UNR
    - added fallback positioning-behaviour for corner-case
      when no gnome-panel was found (lp: #351516, #351593)
    - added sanity-check for existence of $HOME/.cache (lp: #345770)
  * debian/patches/correct_service_install.patch:
    - the change is in the new version
