@jannem@fosstodon.org Yeah, it's usually only gedit's "unsaved changes" popup that does that to me. You can replicate it by popping open a new tab, typing something, then trying to reboot without saving it. It should then fail with the same "inhibited" message. (And you can use gnome-session-inhibit to see exactly what's asking gnome for the inhibit)
But if -f is overriding the timer, that's almost certainly a bug, IMO.

@becomethewaifu@tech.lgbt No; -f explicitly says it's not going to delay or do any other checks. That is a "Just do it now!" emergency option. -i (--check-inhibitors=no) does what we want. And without "--when" it works fine. But with "--when" it no longer works. Unclear why. May be it bypasses -i; might be an issue with not knowing what inhibitors may be present in the future. But it seems to be a bug. Edit: The bug report, if anyone is interested: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/2154236

@becomethewaifu@tech.lgbt Does that happen in a server flavor? @jannem@fosstodon.org
