Created attachment 400728 [details] emerge --info Cinnamon has trouble processing Freedesktop notifications. When running e.g. notify-send "meh" but also if an application such as rhythmbox or pidgin is sending a notification, instead of the notification displaying I get the following error in ~/.xsession-errors: (cinnamon:28266): Cjs-WARNING **: JS ERROR: RangeError: invalid language tag: %l:%M %p Notification.prototype.update@/usr/share/cinnamon/js/ui/messageTray.js:590 Notification.prototype._init@/usr/share/cinnamon/js/ui/messageTray.js:521 Notification@/usr/share/cinnamon/js/ui/messageTray.js:422 NotificationDaemon.prototype._notifyForSource@/usr/share/cinnamon/js/ui/notificationDaemon.js:401 NotificationDaemon.prototype.NotifyAsync/<@/usr/share/cinnamon/js/ui/notificationDaemon.js:385 _proxyInvoker/asyncCallback@resource:///org/gnome/gjs/modules/overrides/Gio.js:90 Commenting out line 590 in /usr/share/cinnamon/js/ui/messageTray.js fixes the problem, and so does removing the argument to the call to toLocaleTimeString(). In fact, according to the spidermonkey documentation, this function expects a locale, not a time format. This may be related to the following unit test in gnome-extra/cjs being commented out because it was broken: https://sources.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/gentoo-x86/gnome-extra/cjs/files/cjs-2.4.0-disable-unittest-3.patch?view=markup
Can you please report the bug directly to upstream and then post the link here to let us track it? Thanks https://github.com/linuxmint/Cinnamon/issues

We cannot do much until upstream figures out how to fix it :/ https://github.com/linuxmint/Cinnamon/issues/4024
