Description Klaus Ethgen 2021-01-10 10:14:31 UTC
I use sys-power/pm-utils on a laptop. It was now masked 5 days ago with the following comment:
# Andreas Sturmlechner <asturm@gentoo.org> (2021-01-06)
# Abandoned upstream, countless bugs. Replaced by builtin functionality in
# elogind or systemd. Removal in 30 days. Bug #659616.

As I use gentoo to not need systemd; my system is fully free of it. And I also do not want elogind on my system.

pm-utils are the only solution to manage the pm on my system.

Even more pm-utils is just a bunch of easy shell scripts. Not a overblown piece of software as systemd or (e)logind.

So please don't remove that package! It is essentiall for systems like mine.

I haven't personally tried it but perhaps sys-power/suspend would work for you?

>pm-hibernate --> s2disk
