Hi guys,

As was discussed some time ago, I'd like to drop cpufrequtils from our repos. It is dead upstream, and has been replaced by cpupower (in community).

I see no reason to move cpupower out of community, but let me know if you disagree.

The only blocker now is that gnome-applets depend on cpufrequtils and cpupower is not binary/source compatible. There are patches around though, so shouldn't be a big problem.

Comments?

cpupower currently has no hook for pm-utils. I attached the one I'm using. gnome-applets are deprecated anyway (they don't work with gnome-shell). We can just kick out the cpufreq-applet.

Anyone can pick it up there and maintain it: https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/tree/cpufrequtils/trunk... -- Gaetan

Rather we should fix archboot (probably just a deps to change) as a quick grep let thinking that only use 2 files which are also provided by cpupower: /usr/bin/cpufreq-bench_plot.sh and /etc/cpufreq-bench.conf.

I would release a new version, but util-linux in testing blocks me. You can always install archboot with -d option. greetings tpowa -- Tobias Powalowski Archlinux Developer & Package Maintainer (tpowa) http://www.archlinux.org tpowa@archlinux.org
