Package: gnome-settings-daemon
Version: 3.8.3-1+b1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
I am running gnome 3.8, including gnome-settings-daemon 3.8.
In 3.8, there is a hard dependency on systemd. This includes calls to
systemd's hibernate and suspend scripts for the power management.
Debian does not have a properly up to date version of systemd, also
there is some push-back as to whether debian should fully adopt systemd.
I think it would make sense to either make this action configurable or
revert to using the previous pm-utils / upower system.
Currently none of the system's hibernate / suspend functionalities work,
including shutting down the system when the battery is critically low or
when the power button is pressed / lid is closed.
