Rotation is broken about kded_rotation HOT 4 OPEN

Can confirm, using ArchLinux

from kded_rotation.

Okay, this happens after iio-sensor-proxy v.3.1 release

From the changelog:

A long-standing problem with property changes being sent as a broadcast was also fixed, now only programs which register will receive notifications.

And so, because kded_rotation doesn't make this registration, it doesn't receive notifications. As a workaround, we can rollback to iio-sensor-proxy v.3.0.

from kded_rotation.

I went to the orientation-helper file and changed this line:

PRIMARY_DISPLAY=$(xrandr | grep primary | awk '{print $1}')

to

PRIMARY_DISPLAY=$(xrandr | grep " connected " | awk '{print $1}')

compiled, installed, and now it works again.
