Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Enrico Zini <enr...@debian.org>
* Package name : pm-utils-light Version : 0.6 Upstream Author : Enrico Zini <enr...@enricozini.org> * URL : http://pkg-fso.nomeata.de/sid/pm-utils-light * License : GPL Programming Lang: C Description : pm-utils replacement for embedded hardware Pros: * It tries its best to run hooks in exactly the same way as pm-utils. * It's faster * It can load hooks from a .so file, which is much faster, avoids context switches and allows to keep state conveniently in memory. * .so files will be loaded also if they are not executable. Install a non-executable .so file to have it loaded by pm-utils light but ignored by pm-utils. * It allows to cancel a resume, for example in order to go back to sleep in case of a resume for usb disconnect. . Cons: * No support for quirks * It does not ship the functions and pm-functions shell libraries, so plugins cannot make use of them This is currently available in the pkg-fso repository. It gained a few users, and I've been asked to upload it to sid.
