[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#747180: dbus reports CanSuspend/CanHibernate as false

[Pawel Palucha]

Package: dbus
Version: 1.8.2-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I'm not really sure if this is dbus bug, but I couldn't find more
appropriate package. 

After yesterday's dist-upgrade, I noticed that options for suspend and
hibernate are missing from KDE menu. Suspend/hibernate works properly
when triggered from command-line (e.g. using s2ram or pm-suspend).

As I understand, KDE queries dbus if the system is able to perform
suspend/hibernate. This is what I get when I query dbus for suspend:

# dbus-send --print-reply --type=method_call \
--dest="org.freedesktop.PowerManagement" \
/org/freedesktop/PowerManagement \
org.freedesktop.PowerManagement.CanSuspend

method return sender=:1.2 -> dest=:1.76 reply_serial=2
   boolean false

When I try to call org.freedesktop.PowerManagement.Suspend method, I
only get screen locked, but no suspend actually. I'm not sure if it's
related, but when calling org.freedesktop.PowerManagement.Suspend, I
have following lines in syslog:

May  6 10:33:53 hostname dbus[2078]: [system] Activating service
name='org.freedesktop.systemd1' (using servicehelper)
May  6 10:33:53 hostname dbus[2078]: [system] Activated service
'org.freedesktop.systemd1' failed: Launch helper exited with unknown
return code 1

I have systemd 204-10 installed.

Please let me know if I can provide any further information to help.
