Package: ddcutil Version: 2.2.5-1 Severity: important Tags: upstream X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
Reported by upstream author: > ddcutil 2.2.5 has had reports of significant problems in the libddcutil > subsystem that watches for display connection and disconnection. Most, I > believe have been resolved in branch 2.2.6-dev. However, under some > ill-defined circumstances, libddcutil loses RW access permission for the > /dev/i2c devices. The flood of errors hangs KDE PowerDevil, and the > user interface become unresponsive. Are you aware of any problems in > this regard? If the problem is at all widespread and not resolved in > libddcutil or powerdevil, ddcutil 2.2.5 should not go into Ubuntu > 26.04. ddcutil 2.2.4 failed to build on arm, so Ubuntu 26.04 would have > to drop back to ddcutil 2.2.3 or forward to 2.2.6, assuming that becomes > available soon. -- System Information: Debian Release: 13.3 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable-security'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 6.12.41+deb13-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_WARN Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US:en Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages ddcutil depends on: ii i2c-tools 4.4-2 ii libc6 2.41-12+deb13u1 ii libdrm2 2.4.124-2 ii libglib2.0-0t64 2.84.4-3~deb13u2 ii libjansson4 2.14-2+b3 ii libudev1 257.9-1~deb13u1 ii libx11-6 2:1.8.12-1 ii libxext6 2:1.3.4-1+b3 ii libxrandr2 2:1.5.4-1+b3 ii pci.ids 0.0~2025.06.09-1 ii usb.ids 2025.07.26-1 ii usbutils 1:018-2 ddcutil recommends no packages. ddcutil suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
