1 I think I had first misinterpreted the news msg, but want to be sure I
2 do understand it correctly now.
3
4 The message ends with
5
6 All non-systemd users are recommended to choose between:
7 # emerge --oneshot --noreplace 'sys-power/upower-pm-utils'
8 or
9 # emerge --oneshot --noreplace '>=sys-power/upower-0.99.0'
10 However, all systemd users are recommended to stay with sys-power/upower.
11
12 I first read "stay with sys-power/upower" to mean systemd users should
13 NOT do any of the two options for non-systemd users and let portage "do
14 its thing". However, portage want to replace upower with
15 upower-pm-utils, which I am pretty sure is not intended for systemd
16 users.
17
18 Is the proper reading of the news message, that the systemd users should
19 use the second option available for non-systemd users? Specifically am
20 I to execute
21
22 # emerge --oneshot --noreplace '>=sys-power/upower-0.99.0'
23
24 ?
25
26 thanks in advance,
