Hello!
A summary on the state of reverse dependencies of the upower
has been requested before starting the transition.
I'll attach my summary below and at the same time asks for
anyone who wishes for anything else before starting this
transition to speak up about that!
Except for razorqt and xfce, no replies from maintainers on either
call for action on debian-devel or the bug reports filed on their
packages. (Notable mention is that mate maintainers quickly uploaded
new version of their packages to fix build against libupower-glib-dev
..... but didn't reply to dbus API bug report.)
Removals:
===========================================================
wmbattery: remove from testing.
sugar-session-0.96: others have suggested removal. Not checked.
sugar-session-0.98: -"-
sucrose-0.96: -"-
sucrose-0.98: -"-
NOPs (or removal if you prefer):
===========================================================
razorqt-power: razorqt dead upstream (merged with LXDE), sounds like it's
already not in shape for release.
cinnamon-session: only in experimental.
indicator-session: source seems to indicate suspend + hibernate
only via upower, but looks like it disables menu entries when upower
is not available.
indicator-session-gtk2: -"- (built from same source)
Note: indicator-session* has no reverse dependencies.
Sourceful uploads:
=======================================================================
cairo-dock-plug-ins: NMU with upower disabled for now.
Also tries both logind and ck besides upower interfaces.
gnome-applets: sponsor new package revision once transition starts.
xfce: response from maintainer.... Not sure what he's saying though and why
he's not picking up the patches from fedora. Might need NMU.
(xfce4-systemload-plugin: apparently fixed in svn)
(xfce4-session, xfce4-power-manager)
Remaining packages with open bug reports (NOPs?):
=======================================================================
mate: api usage already fixed in mate, dbus-usage should hopefully not
be a problem? Assume maintainer has tested his previous work.
(mate-power-manager, mate-session-manager)
gnome: not checked but IMO not interesting since it'll be replaced by
gnome 3.12 components as soon as the upower transition has finished.
(gnome-power-manager, gdm3, gnome-session-bin)
lxsession: source seems to indicate support for both logind and upower.
lightdm: source seems to indicate upower is only a fallback after logind.
kde: not checked but KDE is generally a known user of logind interface...
(kde-config-touchpad, libsolid4, kde-plasma-desktop, kde-plasma-netbook)
