Cannot install it properly

[alfredjophy]

Followed the readme to install.. on ninja -C build install , i get this:

`No such key “show-mount” in schema “org.gnome.shell.extensions.ding:pop” as specified in override file “/usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/50_pop-session.gschema.override”; ignoring override for this key.`

after this , i tried to open both the gui and throught the terminal, i get this:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/dbus/bus.py", line 177, in activate_name_owner
    return self.get_name_owner(bus_name)

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

    return (True, self.call_blocking(BUS_D

I use PopOS 20.10 with the mainline 5.9.6 kernel

There is an issue with the installation using meson. It doesn't create the required symlink. Try adding the symlink manually ln -sf /lib/systemd/system/cpupower-gui-helper.service /etc/systemd/system/dbus-org.rnd2.cpupower_gui.helper.service.

It did work. That is a different one. This version has a new dependency, libhandy. If you run apt install gir1.2-handy-1 it should fix the problem.

[alfredjophy]

Yeah , it works now...it looks great. ,btw..thanks for the help

[vagnum08]

Glad you got it working.

I will leave the issue open for others to see and as a reminder for me till I fix the symlink install.

Hi, I update the app and can't seem to find the missing dependency on my distro. Linux Mint 19.3 Tricia

[vagnum08]

I had a quick look. libhandy is not available at all on Linux Mint. I might try adding libhandy as a subproject so if it is not installed it would be built along with cpupower-gui
