Does it work with RHEL 8 also? Do you implement all package for it? Like fedora spin?

EDIT:
I tried to install on RHEL and failed, is says that mine can't install powertools.

Thanks for the backport! Works great.

I noticed a smaller issue with the backport, screenlock doesnt work.
xfce4-screensaver needs to be included in the backport. I got it to work by installing this:

Maybe you should do an update?
