Looks interesting, applies cleanly, but I have no idea about how to judge how effective it is (from a "patch another package and build it" perspective, that is). I would include it anyways -- part of making pm-utils play nicely with everything else has to include making sure everyone else can programmaticly play nice with us, and pkg-config intergration would really help out in that area. _______________________________________________ Pm-utils mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/pm-utils
