Description of problem:

After upgrading the cinnamon packages, I noticed that the screen brightness control buttons do not work anymore. Looking at journalctl, I got:

May 19 22:06:42 lars csd-media-keys[1610]: Failed to get old screen percentage: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.cinnamon.SettingsDaemon was not provided by any .service files

After which I noticed that the cinnamon-settings-daemon did not run at all, which lead me to notice that there is an invalid symlink in /usr/bin/cinnamon-settings-daemon which might be the cause:

% ll /usr/bin/cinnamon-settings-daemon
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 37 May  8 21:45 /usr/bin/cinnamon-settings-daemon -> /usr/libexec/cinnamon-settings-daemon
% ll /usr/libexec/cinnamon-settings-daemon
ls: cannot access '/usr/libexec/cinnamon-settings-daemon': No such file or directory


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
3.4.0-1.fc25
