is this repo unmaintained?

[teleshoes]

hey, sorry.
i mean, its not unmaintained, but its not exactly NOT unmaintained either. i update it only to get tpacpi-bat working when it breaks for me personally.
ill try to take a look at this soon

[henning-schild]

Thanks, because i am working on another patch that i would like to get merged. (here?) That is also coming from tpacpi-bat.

[teleshoes]

hey look, it only took me 1 full year to actually test this! ...sorry :(

EDIT: ok not QUITE a fully year, but we can take on the additional full year it took me to notice the pull req, and call it 2 full years

[henning-schild]

oh progress ;) thx

i do not even remember what that other patch was, interesting to see that it took you so long to adopt >= 4.15

what is "upstream" if this is potentially not?

[teleshoes]

unfortunately this is as upstream as it gets, afaik.
(tpacpi-bat is actually mine, acpi_call i only maintain because its a dependency of tpacpi-bat)

(EDIT: ha! "maintain"...)

[henning-schild]

not sure about other distros but gentoo has both ... not sure how many users there are

https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/tree/master/app-laptop/tpacpi-bat
https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/tree/master/sys-power/acpi_call

maybe that helps in terms of motivation, there are people using it!
And i guess other distros like maybe arch have it as well

[teleshoes]

yea i suppose i should maintain these better. please feel free to pull-req any patches you like. i will do at least basic code review and testing on at least one thinkpad.

Btw. The NixOS community also maintains a fork now. Maybe we can consolidate the effort somehow: mkottman#89
