hey guys the power manager applet for cinnamon still seems to be broken i saw a bug report about upower two months ago and it still hasnt been updated and i was wondering if anyone has an idea whats going on with that

https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/40193 is the bug report
https://github.com/linuxmint/cinnamon-c … /issues/65 is the upstream report (closed) see the upstream link for details but linuxmint will not fix it
So waiting for the arch maintainers to respond to the reopened bug report after upstream closure.

No news from the arch maintainers yet right?
This is still broken.

I believe it's an upstream issue and I believe that JGC believes the same as well.

Situation appears to have reach an impasse arch is waiting for upstream to fix and upstream has closed the issue.

Well, that is unfortunate. This bug along almost renders Cinnamon on arch unusable for laptops (no suspend).

you can compile a working version locally using the patch attached to the arch bug report and the following changes to the PKGBUILD from ABS

source=("$pkgname-$pkgver.tar.gz::https://github.com/linuxmint/cinnamon-control-center/archive/$pkgver.tar.gz"
        "upower_arch.patch")
sha256sums=('76b32187298f4d934ded2a2a898c371e7644fe9f3142b41bf9acf39d11436491'
            SKIP)

prepare() {
  cd $pkgname-$pkgver
  patch -p1 -i ../upower_arch.patch
}
