no lcd display device in colord

[winst0nsmith]

on a fresh debian sid install on a 2012 macbook air, gnome-color-manager does not list my laptop's lcd. colormgr get-devices doesn't show a display. looking in journal, i see these related messages:

Nov 03 08:49:54 xxx colord[3266]: (colord:3266): Cd-WARNING *: failed to get session [pid 3270]: No such device or address
Nov 03 08:49:54 xxx colord[3266]: (colord:3266): Cd-WARNING *: CdMain: failed to read /proc/3270/cmdline

any ideas what is going on? i'm hoping to get the lcd added so that i can apply the appropriate profile.

running colord 1.2.11, gnome-color-manager 3.18.0

thanks in advance, had no luck with google.

So you've compiled with systemd support, but sd_pid_get_session() seems to be failing. This is trying to get the session the process belongs to so we can manage seats correctly.

thanks for the response hugh...

found an arch bug report, seems similar:
https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/37014

is this an issue with cups then, or systemd? any tips on getting my display to show up in colord and gnome-color-manager?

debian updated it's sid package to colord 1.2.12, and that fixed this for me. lcd display now appears in gnome's color manager and colormgr. i still see those messages regarding sd_pid_get_session, but they seem to just be warnings.

i'm new to github, shall i close this issue?
