<p>Package: xdg-desktop-portal<br/>
Version: 1.4.2-3<br/>
Severity: normal<br/>
File: /usr/libexec/xdg-desktop-portal</p>
<p>Every minute, this service, which I don't want or need, and don't even know what it's about (flatpak pulls it in) spams my syslog:</p>
<p>Dec 17 20:31:06 lotus xdg-desktop-por[31369]: Failed to get application states: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.portal.Error.Failed: Could not get window list: Cannot invoke method; proxy is for the well-known name org.gnome.Shell without an owner, and proxy was constructed with the G_DBUS_PROXY_FLAGS_DO_NOT_AUTO_START flag</p>
<p>I tried masking the systemd user unit, but it still somehow gets started.</p>
<p>Please make it optional, and less verbose.</p>
