@boredland It already is in dependencies as an optional dependency (optdepend).

python-pyqt5

should be in the dependencies, shouldn't it?

PSA - If nothing happens on launch (and you're expecting a GUI), install python-pyqt5

@psydev Thanks. Package updated.

Great package! Just a note: laptop-mode-tools seems to also support iw, which is a more modern replacement for wireless_tools (deprecated). This could be reflected in the package dependencies.

See https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Network_configuration/Wireless#Utilities).

@aminvakil This is not mandatory:

I wonder why the maintainer hasn't used the url variable in source.

As url has been defined like this:

url='https://github.com/rickysarraf/laptop-mode-tools/'

So shouldn't he change

source=("${pkgname}-${pkgver}.tar.gz"::"https://github.com/rickysarraf/laptop-mode-tools/archive/${pkgver}.tar.gz")

to

source=("${pkgname}-${pkgver}.tar.gz"::"${url}archive/${pkgver}.tar.gz")

?

Since the last update, I've been experiencing periodic full-system hangs, particularly when doing CPU-intensive tasks like watching YouTube videos. Uninstalling laptop-mode-tools seems to have fixed the problem. I've opened an issue here: https://github.com/rickysarraf/laptop-mode-tools/issues/129

I've switched to tlp, so I cannot test laptop-mode-tools easily.

I've received this message from the person who flagged the PKGBUILD:

Laptop Mode Tools 1.72 released, see https://github.com/rickysarraf/laptop-mode-tools/releases/tag/1.72

Please note the switch to PyQt5 and Python3 despite only small version number bump.
