[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#1041167: upower: Please make libimobiledevice6 optional

[Diederik de Haas]

Package: upower
Version: 1.90.2-3
Severity: wishlist

I'm working on a Debian image for the PineTab2 and looking into ways to
make it as power efficient as possible. As I'm targetting Trixie, I
upgraded to the Experimental version of upower.

But the upgrade installed libimobiledevice6 and via that also usbmuxd,
which includes a service. I don't have (and don't care about) iDevices,
so it would be great if I could use the latest upower without support
for iDevices, but as libimobiledevice6 is a dependency, that's not
possible.
Could libimobiledevice6 be 'demoted' to a Recommends or Suggests?

Cheers,
  Diederik
