My bad. You are right, I was not talking about the package included in
debian. Did not realize/remember that I had the package built myself
from some instructions on github.

Thanks for looking into it!

We currently aren't distributing (or installing) autorandr-lid-listener
in the Debian package.

That said, we probably should; so I'll add this as a depends.

Thanks for the report.

Bug#1035044: autorandr: recommend libinput-tools missing

2023-04-28 Thread Frank Scherrer
Package: autorandr
Version: 1.12.1-27-g4653ea6
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

first: Thanks for your work, I was missing a tool like autorandr dearly and was
so glad I found it. That was years ago.

   * What led up to the situation?

I detected and stored two differend setups of Monitors, both connected to
docking-station and external monitor.
One with lid closed, one with lid open.

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
 ineffective)?

Opening or closing the lid.

   * What was the outcome of this action?

No change of Displays Configuration

   * What outcome did you expect instead?

Change of Displays Configuration

   * Additional Info apart from default questions

Systemd-Service autorandr-lid-listener failed with error:
In the journal of autorandr-lid-listener I found

  autorandr[51936]: stdbuf: failed to run command ‘libinput’: No such file or
directory

So I installed libinput-tools. Afterwards I could get the service started and
the Configuration changed after opening/closing the lid.

I suggest to put libinput-tools into the list of recommended packages.

Does this sound reasonable?

cheers
Frank
