Adding FutureFeature keyword to RFE's. Please open an upstream GNOME bug, this is not the place to do feature enhancements to upstream. Thanks! (In reply to comment #0) > Would it be possible to move that or add a /etc/xdg/autostart/ desktop file? > > This would allow it to be started and used by Xfce users in addition to gnome > users. And then it would autostart in KDE if people have both KDE and GNOME installed. So this is not a good idea neither upstream nor in the Fedora g-p-m package. It's better for Fedora's XFCE packages just to ship it's own autostart file and require the g-p-m package. srsly? Shouldn't one be able to simply install this, and have it "just work", regardless of DE? Regardless, upstream *is* the place for this to happen (or not). (In reply to comment #4) > srsly?

No, KDE ships with it's own power management utilities and by the same token I don't want these to start when logging into GNOME just because I happen to have KDE installed. It's for the same reasons we have OnlyShowIn= etc. in the desktop entry spec. imo OnlyShowIn= should be reserved for tools that are truly DE-specific, but that's just me. (In reply to comment #6) > imo OnlyShowIn= should be reserved for tools that are truly DE-specific, but > that's just me. I think gnome-power-manager is truly DE-specific. Not just the name, also the deps and integration with gnome-screensaver. Well, I have been happily using gnome-power-manager on my Xfce desktop for many years and it's been working great for me. ;) In any case, you are correct. I will take this upstream... thanks. |
