Subject: xfce4-power-manager-plugins: plugin icon is missing

Date: Mon, 22 Sep 2014 22:51:20 +0200

Package: xfce4-power-manager-plugins
Version: 1.4.0-2
Severity: normal

I like new xfpm plugin very much, there's just one small problem with
it. On the desktop, where I have an UPS connected via USB cable,
there's no icon in the xfce panel (previously, there was an icon in
the tray). But, on the laptop (equipped with a battery), I see the
icon.

Just to be clear, I'm not talking about trayicon, I know it's gone,
I'm talking about the xfpm plugin icon.

Can you strace the plugin and check the file it tries to open? It should
try to use the various ups files from xfce4-power-manager-data, but that
can also depend on the currently used icon theme.

I replaced panel's wrapper binary with script that executes strace -fe 
open on the real wrapper binary, and then added the plugin to the panel. 
I'm afraid not much additional info in the trace file. Unless I missed 
something, it looks like the plugin never attempts to open any image 
file. At least you can see what icon themes I have installed (adwaita, 
gnome, hicolor).

This issue looks specific to the fact that I have UPS connected on this 
particular computer, not battery. I see that xfce4-power-manager-data 
package has specific icons for UPS' and they're properly installed, 
somehow they are invisible in panel. :P

It might be worth running xfpm from command line, using debug:

xfce4-power-manager -q # stop current daemon
xfce4-power-manager --debug # run new daemon with debug mode

And report your findings. Unfortunately I don't have an UPS so I can't
really debug here.

Got it!

Somehow you always manage to help me to help you :), really nice to work with you.

I'm not even posting the whole debug output, because I have a pretty good idea where the problem lies, I hope you can take it from there.

Since there's a difference in behaviour between battery and UPS equipped computers, I extracted debug output from both, and with a bit of filtering did a context diff. And soon it's obvious what's goin' on.

Desktop:

-xfpm_power_get_power_devices(): Power device detected at : /org/freedesktop/UPower/devices/ups_hiddev0
-xfpm_power_add_device(): 'ups' device added
-xfpm_power_add_device(): Battery device type 'ups' detected at: /org/freedesktop/UPower/devices/ups_hiddev0

Laptop:

+xfpm_power_get_power_devices(): Power device detected at : /org/freedesktop/UPower/devices/line_power_AC
+xfpm_power_add_device(): 'line-power' device added
+xfpm_power_get_power_devices(): Power device detected at : /org/freedesktop/UPower/devices/battery_BAT0
+xfpm_power_add_device(): 'battery' device added
+xfpm_power_add_device(): Battery device type 'battery' detected at: /org/freedesktop/UPower/devices/battery_BAT0

So far so good... But later on...

-xfpm_battery_refresh_icon(): Battery icon xfpm-ups-charged
+xfpm_battery_refresh_icon(): Battery icon xfpm-primary-charged

So, laptop is searching for something called xfpm-ups-charged, and with a little help of locate(1), I can see lots of such named icons. But, locating xfpm-ups-charged returns nil. That's because appropriate icons are actually called:

/usr/share/icons/hicolor/32x32/status/xfpm-ups-100.png
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/status/xfpm-ups-100.png
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/status/xfpm-ups-100.svg

To test it, I did 3 symbolic links (ln -s xfpm-ups-100.foo xfpm-ups-charged.foo), rebuilt icon-cache, reloaded plugin and voila, the icon is there in all its beauty. ;)

So, either icons should be renamed or the plugin should search for appropriately named icons.
