This is actually an upstream bug that got fixed after 0.99.8 release. The patch fixing this can be seen at https://cgit.freedesktop.org/upower/commit/?id=fe356951a9d45fee73036aaa72661f0319dffba3. It'd be nice if this patch could be applied to current ebuild version in the tree since without it charger detection in desktop environments using upower is simply broken. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start upower via systemd on some battery powered device 2. Run upower -d from command line check AC status 3. Unplug/Plug the charger. 4. Run upwer -d again Actual Results: AC line status does not change after the charger is plugged/unplugged. Expected Results: AC line status is different in steps 2 and 4
