By default, Bugzilla does not search the list of RESOLVED bugs.
You can force it to do so by putting the upper-case word ALL in front of your search query, e.g.: ALL tdelibs
We recommend searching for bugs this way, as you may discover that your bug has already been resolved and fixed in a later release.

Description Maho 2011-11-20 13:40:31 CST

According to bug #215, I made modification to /opt/trinity/bin/guidance-power-manager, so it looks like that:
#v+
#!/bin/sh

for dir in $(find /opt/trinity/share/pyshared /opt/trinity/share/python-support -type d); do
        PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:$dir
done
export PYTHONPATH

echo $PYTHONPATH

/opt/trinity/share/python-support/kde-guidance-powermanager-trinity/guidance-power-manager.py &
#v-

After I run it, I get such error: 
#v+

Comment 1 Timothy Pearson 2012-05-14 02:09:06 CDT

The guidance modules are deprecated and are slowly being replaced with better alternatives written in a language other than Python.  This likely will not be fixed as a result.

Comment 2 Michele Calgaro 2018-07-28 03:16:30 CDT

Guidance power manager module has been removed quite some time ago. This bug is no longer valid.
