--- Begin Message ---Package: modemmanager Version: 1.10.0-1 Severity: serious Justification: missing dependency Hi, A basic modemmanager installation doesn't result in a functional mmcli command. The following might work (e.g. after a reboot, to make sure the modem detection is fine): # mmcli -L /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/Modem/0 [QUALCOMM INCORPORATED] QUECTEL Mobile Broadband Module But trying to force a scan (e.g. before or instead of rebooting) doesn't: # mmcli -S error: couldn't request to scan devices: 'GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.ModemManager1.Error.Core.Failed: PolicyKit authorization failed: 'GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1 was not provided by any .service files'' Trying to establish a connection doesn't work either: # mmcli -m 0 --simple-connect apn=orange error: couldn't connect the modem: 'GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.ModemManager1.Error.Core.Failed: PolicyKit authorization failed: 'GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1 was not provided by any .service files'' Given the error message, it's pretty clear the problem is at the D-Bus level, so isn't actually limited to mmcli: trying to toy with the modem over D-Bus directly (e.g. using Python bindings) would result in the same problems. It looks to me policykit-1 should be at least in Recommends, possibly in Depends. This might have been unreported until since end users are likely using NetworkManager from a desktop environment, and network-manager does list policykit-1 in Depends. I've double checked those findings with buster myself, but I'm told the same happens with bullseye as well, which would be consistent with the facts Depends/Recommends didn't change between buster's version and bullseye's. This would seem worth fixing in both distributions. Cheers, -- Cyril Brulebois ([email protected]) <https://debamax.com/> D-I release manager -- Release team member -- Freelance Consultant

[ Cyril Brulebois ] * Fix missing dependency on policykit-1 (Closes: #991223). Without it, a lot of operations would result in the following error at the D-Bus level: The name org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1 was not provided by any .service files In bullseye, ModemManager.service wouldn't even start, because of the missing polkit.service dependency at the systemd level. . [ Arnaud Ferraris ] * New upstream version 1.18.4 * d/copyright: fix wrong path for libqcdm `libqcdm` was previously `libwmc`, but the corresponding copyright entry wasn't updated when the folder was renamed. * d/control: update packages descriptions. As it was pointed out, ModemManager now supports 5G modems, make sure the packages descriptions reflect that. * debian: address lintian issues. This commit addresses multiple issues reported by lintian: - doc installed into `/usr/share/gtk-doc` instead of `/usr/share/doc`, which is normal behavior for glib-based software - missing `Build-Depends-Package` in `libmm-glib0` symbols file - ModemManager plugins not including dependency information - system-wide `fcc-unlock.d` folder installed even though we don't ship any distro-specific configuration which would be included there * d/modemmanager.prerm: don't call systemctl directly. Debian provides a helper tool for avoiding direct calls to systemctl in maintainer scripts, so let's use it. * d/control: sort build dependencies. Also avoid installing unnecessary dependencies when using the `nodoc` build profile.
