Yes, if you haven't run `sensors-detect` yet, Freon says that you need to do so instead of showing the hardware temperature. This message is replaced with detected CPU temperature, by default, after you run sensors-detect. Freon does not provide any warnings about the risk of using sensors-detect, though, not in the extension button or settings menu, or in its GitHub wiki. I only encountered warnings about risk when I looked at the man page before running the command. On the upside, users would only know how to run `sensors-detect --auto` if they had already read the man page, likely including the risk warning, and if they see the Freon message and try running `sensors-detect` without arguments, then it triggers an interactive mode which also prints risk warnings. So I suppose, as long as I keep sensors-detect out of the package installation scriptlets, users should see a warning before anything risky happens. I finally thought to just post an issue on the upstream GitHub (I believe this is the official repo): https://github.com/groeck/lm-sensors/issues/17 The repo doesn't seem terribly active, though 😞 _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
