The line Icon=ups-monitor.png results in an error being thrown /var/tmp/portage/net-misc/ups-monitor-0.8.3-r1/image//usr/share/applications/rudd-o-ups-monitor.desktop: error: value "ups-monitor.png" for key "Icon" in group "Desktop Entry" is an icon name with an extension, but there should be no extension as described in the Icon Theme Specification if the value is not an absolute path Error on file "./ups-monitor.desktop": Failed to validate the created desktop file The place to fix this is in the ups-monitor.desktop file from upstream, changing Icon=ups-monitor.png to Icon=ups-monitor. I've reported it to Rudd-O, the developer. Reproducible: Always Is this because I'm running KDE as a desktop?
Created attachment 135015 [details] patch for the ebuild - ups-monitor needs dev-python/gnome-python-2.18.2 in DEPEND and not in RDEPEND. - a patch was necessary for the file ups-monitor.desktop the attached archive contains: - ups-monitor.desktop.patch to be copied in /usr/portage/net-misc/ups-monitor/files - the patch for the ups-monitor-0.8.3-r1.ebuild in order to apply the patch use the command: patch -p0 /usr/portage/net-misc/ups-monitor/ups-monitor-0.8.3-r1.ebuild ups-monitor-0.8.3-r1.ebuild.patch - regenerate the manifest files: ebuild /usr/portage/net-misc/ups-monitor/ups-monitor-0.8.3-r1.ebuild manifest it should works now.
Hi, i modified ups-monitor ebuild to take account of an mge device that doesn't have battery.voltage but output.voltage and mustek device that doesn't have remaining time variables. Also it is certainly not accurate but at least gives some more helpful indications as just the word (unknown) :) Moreover the script now doesn't complain on the console anymore. Jj

This looks dead for a long time, I cannot find upstream and it packaged on any other distribution, I think we should simply treeclean it
