PSA: The shared lib is now split into a separate package, so you'll need to remove the previous version before updating to 0.1.2-3.

@dreieck: Do not run firmware-manager as root. It's a script using pkexec, not the binary itself.

A note:

After compiling and installing this package, when I run firmware-manager (as root, of course) it prints the following error messages to the terminal:

The window shows up, but it is empty and the only visible element is a refresh button.

gnome-firmware shows a few devices, so I think this one here is not working.

Regards!

Hello!

I'm trying to install this package, but I keep getting the following error after Enabling com.system76.FirmwareManager.Notify.timer service

I get the error: Failed to connect to bus: No medium found

Not sure why I have dbus and I have other series running.

I get the same error for the non git version.

EDIT: A reboot fixed the issue for me.

@jsimon0: Fixed, thanks.

@m3thodic: The issue is now fixed. I made the requested changes to the install file.

yochananmarqos commented on 2019-09-11 14:56 (UTC)

@m3thodic: Yes, I opened an issue here.

Anyone have issues with the default file /usr/lib/systemd/user/com.system76.FirmwareManager.Notify.service

I tried switching groups from sudo to wheel (as it is a default group my user is a member of as well as a group that can run any command with sudo) but that didn't work. I am only able to start the service successfully by commenting out the Group parameter. Just a FYI.

@m3thodic I don't see anything in your changes that would fix a broken build. What failed?

There's no need to specify both features as they're enabled by default.
