 Posted: Tue Jul 07, 2015 10:19 pm Post subject: xfce4-power-manager-1.5.2 want upower |
 |
|
I'm trying to update my work laptop after several weeks (or few months?) and got hit by this block:
| Code: | [blocks B ] sys-power/upower ("sys-power/upower" is blocking sys-power/upower-pm-utils-0.9.23-r2)
...
(sys-power/upower-0.99.2-r1:0/3::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) pulled in by
>=sys-power/upower-0.99.0 required by (xfce-extra/xfce4-power-manager-1.5.2:0/0::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge)
(sys-power/upower-pm-utils-0.9.23-r2:0/0::gentoo, installed) pulled in by
sys-power/upower-pm-utils required by (net-misc/networkmanager-1.0.2-r1:0/0::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge)
sys-power/upower-pm-utils required by (xfce-base/xfce4-session-4.12.1:0/0::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge)
sys-power/upower-pm-utils required by (xfce-base/xfce4-settings-4.12.0:0/0::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge)
>=sys-power/upower-pm-utils-0.9.23 required by (net-im/telepathy-mission-control-5.16.3:0/0::gentoo, installed)
|
Seems sensible since upower-pm-utils should give us a non-systemd upower.
In the build there are hard deps on both upower and pm-utils.
| Code: | >=sys-power/upower-0.99.0
sys-power/pm-utils
|
In the 4.12 announcement I clearly see
| Quote: | | Our session manager was updated to use logind and/or upower if available for hibernate/suspend support. For portability and to respect our users' choices, fallback modes were implemented relying on os-specific backends. |
but also | Quote: | | Power management was not forgotten: A new panel plugin was created, logind/upower support was added to handle battery/lid/brightness events, and locking via light-locker was implemented. The settings dialog was also revamped, and support for X11 screenblanking was added. |
So can I still use the xfce power manager without systemd? Is it just a bug in the ebuild? |

Any version above xfce-extra/xfce4-power-manager-1.5.0 requires >=sys-power/upower-0.99.0.
The blocking package is in your case net-im/telepathy-mission-control. If you can unmerge it the rest of the system will update properly.
Or you could solve this by masking >=xfce-extra/xfce4-power-manager-1.5.0 in /ets/portage/package.mask. XFCE should run just fine with version 1.4.4. |

Thanks for the reply.
To late to start messing with it today. Will check tomorrow after work.
Just one thing - upower has 'inherit eutils systemd' in the ebuild so it'd drag systemd with it? That's really not an option.
If so, then I'm still confused by what was written in the 4.12 announcement. |

| It is not necessary to use systemd for an XFCE 4 install. I had it running with upower/consolekit + openrc. |

| Sure, I'm just wondering about the 1.5 power manager. Since it wants upower. Although the release announcement says that it's optional. |

Going through the release announcement, it doesn't say anywhere that upower is an optional dependency for power-manager. The release does day upower is an optional dep for xfce4-session and xfce4-settings
