The new update to "cpufreqd" now also build-depends on libcpupower-dev. This is more common to be used, so the prio slightly increases IMHO.
OTOH cpufreqd already has delta, and we might as well try to build differently. The package seems community/foundations maintained, but not in main. Adding a bug task for it. The Debian package has no git VCS entry to check when/why they changed build deps. $ rma cpufreqd cpufreqd | 2.4.2-2 | oldoldstable | source, amd64, armel, armhf, i386 cpufreqd | 2.4.2-2 | oldstable | source cpufreqd | 2.4.2-2 | stable | source cpufreqd | 2.4.2-2+b1 | oldstable | amd64, arm64, armel, armhf, i386, mips, mips64el, mipsel, ppc64el, s390x cpufreqd | 2.4.2-2+b2 | stable | amd64, arm64, armel, armhf, i386, mips, mips64el, mipsel, s390x cpufreqd | 2.4.2-2.3 | testing | source, amd64, arm64, armel, armhf, i386, mips64el, mipsel, s390x cpufreqd | 2.4.2-2.3 | unstable | source, amd64, arm64, armel, armhf, i386, mips64el, mipsel, s390x cpufreqd | 2.4.2-2.3 | unstable-debug | source cpufreqd | 2.4.2-2.3+b1 | testing | ppc64el cpufreqd | 2.4.2-2.3+b1 | unstable | ppc64el cpufreqd | 2.4.2-1 | precise/universe | source, amd64, armel, armhf, i386, powerpc cpufreqd | 2.4.2-2ubuntu1 | trusty/universe | source, amd64, arm64, armhf, i386, powerpc, ppc64el cpufreqd | 2.4.2-2ubuntu1 | xenial/universe | source, amd64, arm64, armhf, i386, powerpc, ppc64el, s390x cpufreqd | 2.4.2-2ubuntu2 | bionic/universe | source, amd64, arm64, armhf, i386, ppc64el, s390x cpufreqd | 2.4.2-2ubuntu3 | eoan/universe | source, amd64, arm64, armhf, i386, ppc64el, s390x cpufreqd | 2.4.2-2ubuntu3 | focal/universe | source, amd64, arm64, armhf, ppc64el, riscv64, s390x cpufreqd | 2.4.2-2ubuntu3 | groovy/universe | source, amd64, arm64, armhf, ppc64el, riscv64, s390x cpufreqd | 2.4.2-2.2ubuntu1 | groovy-proposed/universe | source, amd64, arm64, armhf, riscv64, s390x ** Also affects: cpufreqd (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1891336 Title: gkrellm2-cpufreq depends on libcpupower-dev produced by Debian kernel Status in cpufreqd package in Ubuntu: New Status in gkrellm2-cpufreq package in Ubuntu: New Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I don't know how important that is as gkrellm2-cpufreq itself is scheduled for removal.
