15 This probably could have used a news item, as the change impacts both
16 stable and ~arch users. They need to do an "emerge -1
17 sys-power/upower-pm-utils" to actually get the new package, otherwise
18 portage is going to try to switch them from udev to systemd, since
19 packages like kdelibs list upower first, and portage has no way of
20 knowing that this is a big change.
