Title: [SOLVED] brightnessctl 0.5.1-2 broken (assumes systemd)
Post by: dnkl on 04 April 2020, 20:08:28
Hi,

brightnessctl just got updated from 0.5.1-1 to 0.5.1-2. It's a single change: it is now built with ENABLE_SYSTEMD=1 instead of INSTALL_UDEV_RULES=1.

As a result, it is no  longer possible to set brightness as a normal user (but 'sudo brightnessctl s ...' works).

Could artix provide a version of this package built the "old" way, with udev rules being installed?

Note: there's also https://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/light/, which uses udev rules (and no signs of systemd there...). I'm fine with using that instead of brightnessctl.

It is probably possible, I will have a look.

Edit: Imported and edited. Will be in repo soon. When it is updated, should be revision 2.1, let me know if it works as expected.
