[Pkg-e-devel] Bug#757146: EFL uses deprecate property from upower 0.99 and causes errors on unrelated software.

[Carlos Alberto Lopez Perez]

Source: efl
Version: 1.8.6-2


I have been getting errors while trying to build and run webkitefl on Debian/jessie.
The errors were related to upower and dbus.


Tools/Scripts/run-perf-tests --platform efl --release -2
Running 139 tests
Running Animation/balls.html (1 of 139)
error: Animation/balls.html

The issue is caused because upower 0.99 (the one available on Debian jessie) has deprecated that property.

$ apt-get source upower=0.99.0-3
$ grep -r OnLowBattery upower-0.99.0/
upower-0.99.0/NEWS: - Remove OnLowBattery property (use WarningLevel instead) (Bastien Nocera)


I tried to report this upstream but I was unable to do it (the EFL trac gives errors :\ )
