Hi,
today a lot of plasma packages have been updated and after a reboot the battery indicator says "no battery available" and gives no estimate of the charge level and time till complete discharge.

I think I cannot go back to a previous version of plasma-framework (if it is the package to investigate) without reverting also the other kde packages that depend to that. Is it correct?
What can I do?

Re: kde plasma battery indicator says "no battery available" after upgrade

I've found this long standing bug https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=350365 that seems related.

Re: kde plasma battery indicator says "no battery available" after upgrade

I had this as well, just after installing onto a new laptop: specifically a Dell Latitude 5580. I installed the "acpi" and "powerdevil" packages...
  > sudo pacman -S acpi powerdevil

...and rebooted: KDE now has the Batt % used.
