-* Fixing dual Plasma/Xfce installations
-Plasma and Xfce both define the ~org.freedesktop.Notifications~ D-BUS
-service.  That leads to all kinds of fun ([[https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=381693][KDE bug]]; [[https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=484945][Red Hat bug]]); on my
-machine, it causes Plasma sessions to use xfce4-notifyd instead of
-Plasma's own notification mechanism.
-
-[[https://kevinlocke.name/bits/2020/04/12/resolving-desktop-notifications-dbus-service-conflicts/][Kevin Locke]] explains how to solve the issue by defining a third
-~org.freedesktop.Notifications~ service in a higher-priority user
-directory, which runs a command that will determine the current
-desktop environment and start the appropriate notification daemon.  In
-~~/.local/share/dbus-1/services/org.freedesktop.Notifications.service~:
-
-#+begin_src conf-desktop
-[D-BUS Service]
-Name=org.freedesktop.Notifications
-Exec=/bin/sh -c "~/.local/lib/meta-notify"
-#+end_src
-
-This gentleman suggests relying on the ~XDG_SESSION_DESKTOP~ variable
-to find out which DE is running; unfortunately, for some reason if I
-log into Plasma first, then into Xfce, this variable (as well as
-~XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP~ and ~DESKTOP_SESSION~) keeps saying "KDE" when
-the script runs.
-
-(I think this might be caused by Xfce's [[https://gitlab.xfce.org/atomsymbol/xfce4-session/-/blob/xfce4-session-4.14.2/scripts/xinitrc.in.in#L19][xinitrc]] not setting these
-variables if they are not empty, but they *are* set when I look at
-them in a shell once logged in, so… 🤷)
-
-Thus my version of ~~/.local/lib/meta-notify~ falls back on the window
-managers:
-
-#+begin_src sh
-#!/bin/sh
-
-wm=$(wmctrl -m | grep '^Name:' | cut -f2- -d' ')
-
-case ${wm} in
