Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 610214
don't ship /etc/dbus-1/system.d/gnome-power-manager.conf
Last modified: 2014-06-02 09:03:20 EDT
g-p-m ships a file on RHEL5 which allows an @console session to claim org.gnome.PowerManager, but it doesn't appear to actually connect to the system bus and claim this name. This file should just be removed if that is indeed the case.
Yes agreed. I think this was an unused relic that dates to right to when g-p-m started using dbus. It's certainly not been in VCS for years now, but I guess it's still in the version shipped in RHEL5. If we get the required acks it would be trivial to remove this from the binary package.
This bug/component is not included in scope for RHEL-5.11.0 which is the last RHEL5 minor release. This Bugzilla will soon be CLOSED as WONTFIX (at the end of RHEL5.11 development phase (Apr 22, 2014)). Please contact your account manager or support representative in case you need to escalate this bug.
