Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: acpi-support
Hi all,
AFAI understand acpi-support is a package for laptops to do power
management stuff as one goes from A/C power to battery & vice-versa. But why is
it a depends of ubuntu-desktop, xubuntu-desktop etc. I have a CRT, a Philips
107E5 . I have been having an issue https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/163985 when
on a hunch I decided to also check out the acpi-support as acpi-support also
had a recent update/upgrade. Much to my amazement/horror this is a dependancy
for ubuntu-desktop, xubuntu-desktop and power-management interfaces. Shouldn't
this be something that upstart or some other package should look at & then say
whether this package is needed or not OR there are some other functions as well
which are performed by this package (which are needed in a CRT environment as
well) ?
