Arch Linux

The version in the provides needs to be updated. (I wonder if there is a way to make that based on $pkgver.)

Please change the pkgver function to use :

git describe --always | sed 's|UPOWER_||;s|[-_]|.|g'

This will output '0.99.0.3.gb9cff29-1' which is compairable to the version numbering used in the non git pkg.

Update for pacman-4.1

As of kdelibs-4.10.1 suspend/hibernate options in Kickoff have appeared again and KDE suspends and resumes the system successfully, when using this package.

As of 2013-02-12, pm-utils-related functionality was deprecated and disabled by default in upstream upower. The draft patch I used in this package to drop the pm-utils dependency is no longer needed and therefore not included anymore. So, this package now reflects upower from git master.

WARNING to KDE users: Using upower from git right now will cause the suspend/hibernate options in Kickoff menu to disappear due to an API change. KDESolid needs to be ported to use logind instead of upower to signal suspend/resume events. Until that happens, KDE users are advised to stay with upower-0.9.19 or use --enable-deprecated in upower>=0.9.20 (sonething that this package does not use)

- upower-git with patch to drop dependency to crappy pm-utils
- pm-powersave functionality dropped
- Relies only to kernel backend for suspend/hibernation
- System MUST booted with systemd for suspend/hibernate to work
- Tested and works AT LEAST ON MY SYSTEM. Use at your own risk.
