Version 252.9 Release

This is the first stable release of the version 252 series.

The latest upstream commit this version is synced to is systemd-stable/v252-stable:f3678358a4

Changes and Additions

• Makefile: CLion support has been enhanced.
• suspend/hibernate has its own, dynamically read, configuration in /etc/elogind/sleep.conf now.
• Changes to the elogind sleep options take effect immediately, no reload/restart required any more.
• SYSTEMD_BYPASS_HIBERNATION_MEMORY_CHECK has been unmasked and can be used now. (#250)
• Before going to sleep, a present battery is no longer checked if we are on AC power.
• sleep.conf: introduce SuspendEstimationSec=
• Sleep: Only existing and non-device batteries are enumerated now.
• Added options to use external programs to suspend/hibernate. (#221)
  • SuspendByUsing=
  • HibernateByUsing=
• Removed the long gone forums from README.md and add some support stuff instead.
• Postpone sending preparation signals if hook scripts could cancel suspend/shutdown. (#211)
• Removed many files that were no longer needed.
• Added missing translation files
• Enhanced documentation (but it still needs a lot of work!)
• loginctl: remove useless --quiet option (njhanley / #228)
• Enhanced man-pages (njhanley / #229)
• Enhanced shell-completion (njhanley / #230)
• Removed netlink, elogind does not need.
  • This means that sd_device_new_from_ifname() has reduced functionality now. If this is a problem for you, please file an issue on GitHub.
• Added linux/btrfs* headers from upstream (#199)
• Makefile: Allowed the SYSCONFDIR to be configurable now.
• Added 'pt' to LINGUAS and added 'pt.po' translation file (hugok79 / #202)

Fixed Bugs

• Fixed some issues with suspend-then-hibernate.
• Changed names back to systemd where the renaming to elogind made no sense.
• Fixed man pages and remove some that are not related to elogind.
• Fixed a bug that caused nvidia sleep vt switcher to fail due to an invalid session.
• Fixed busctl introspecting DBus properties.
• Fixed a bug that could possibly crash elogind startup.
• Fixed improper reaping of user sessions.
• Fixed reloading configuration of sleep modes and states. (#232)
• Fixed an issue that could cause restarting elogind to tear down the Xorg session. (#216)
• Fixed a bug that could cause infinite sleep-wakeup-loops. (#241)
• Added some more custom headers in src/basic/linux (#205)
• Reverted "Disable polkit support if libpolkit is not installed". (#167 => #206)
• po/ca.po: Fixed erroneous whitespace.
• Fixed a bug that caused elogind to block itself when dbus was restarted. (pierre-labastie / #224 / #225)
• Fixed a bug in org.freedesktop.login1.conf that caused dbus to ignore the file. (jandryuk / #217)
• Fixed various issues caused by migration upstream commits. (enometh / #238 / #245)
• Added some more custom headers in src/basic/linux (#205)

I get two test failures:

 86/145 elogind:test / test-fs-util            FAIL 0.04s killed by signal 6 SIGABRT
136/145 elogind:dist-check / dbus-docs-fresh   FAIL 0.06s exit status 1

Will investigate. The second one seems harmless (it's about doc). But I'm concerned about the SIGABRT in the first failure.

[pierre]

Turns out that my machine had / owned by a regular user, so that any path starting at / was considered "non safe" by the sd library... This was leading to the first failure. For the second one, it says:

141/145 elogind:dist-check / dbus-docs-fresh                               FAIL             0.21s   exit status 1

Maybe the solution is rather to just touch this file...

No it is not enough...

[pierre]

I'm inclined to just tell this test is known to be broken.

Anyway it seems something only related to doc, so even if the doc is broken we don't have a serious issue.

[pierre]

The man pages are correct. For some reason, the doc is installed in /usr/share/doc/elogind (without the version), and it has only three .md files. I guess something has changed, either with meson itself or meson.build...
