[arch-dev-public] [RFC] dropping cpufrequtils

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 It is dead upstream, and has been replaced by cpupower (in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?

Tom
