Description Dennis Winter 2008-04-24 12:38:10 UTC
The gnome-power-manager installs the following file, causing to be started automagical, even in KDE and also even if I don't want it running.

/usr/share/dbus-1/services/gnome-power-manager.service

An additional USE-Flag, like "disable_autostart" would be nice, which of course disables the upper file.

Reproducible: Always

this can be disabled in your session. Why do you have g-p-m if you don't use it anyway ?

I have KDE and Gnome installed. The latter one has it in it's dependencies.
And about shutting it down in the session? Maybe in Gnome but not in KDE. At least I couldn't find another way, but deleting the file, I mentioned above. And with the next update of g-p-m I will have the file back.

adding kde herd.

Guys do you have a proper solution to support daemon's started through fdo specs in kde3+ ? I don't think removing the file is the proper way to do this kind of things.

I bet that kde guys are too busy. Closing wontfix.
