Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: devicekit-power
After the update in karmic of devicekit-power from 008-1 to
008-1ubuntu1, the devkit-power daemon does not seem to get started. The
symptoms are that gnome-power-manager no longer knows I have a battery
(it just shows the "plug" icon no matter what my laptop's state is,
rather than correctly showing the battery charge and AC adapter state as
before). Also, from the command line, I get:
$ devkit-power
(devkit-power:6225): devkit-power-gobject-WARNING **: Couldn't
enumerate devices: Message did not receive a reply (timeout by message
bus)
and
$ ps ax|grep -e 'dev.*pow'
6241 pts/0 S+ 0:00 grep -e dev.*pow
(Ie no daemon gets activated by dbus).
AFAICT, the only change from 008-1 to 008-1ubuntu1 was the addition of
the pm-powersave.patch, which (aside from the fact that the command
returned from g_strdup_printf() is not freed in
dkp_daemon_set_pmutils_powersave() and hence leaked) looks fairly
harmless to me. So I'm not sure what the real issue is, but something
definitely is wrong, since downgrading devicekit-power back to 008-1
definitely fixes things for me.
