The Linux platform channels sample makes a call to the libupower function `up_client_get_devices`, which was deprecated in libupower 0.99.8 in favour of `up_client_get_devices2`.
In order to build both for users on older versions of libupower, such as 0.99.7, which ships with Ubuntu 18.04 (Bionic), as well as users on newer versions where `up_client_get_devices` is deprecated, this adds a preprocessor check and selects the function available on the host system on which the build takes place.
The Flutter devicelab prod bots have been migrated to Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (Focal) which includes 0.99.11, but the trybots are still in the process of being migrated. This allows the build to work on both, and makes life easier for users running on a variety of Linux distributions.
No tests are added or modified since `up_client_get_devices` and `up_client_get_devices2` have the same semantics.

Note: the `UP_CHECK_VERSION` macro has been around since 2010 (13 years ago), when DKP was forked into libupower. 27fada20be

Flutter Examples
This directory contains several examples of using Flutter. To run an example,
use flutter run inside that example's directory. See the getting started
guide to install the flutter tool.
For additional samples, see the
flutter/samples repo.
Available examples include:
-
Hello, world The hello world app is a minimal Flutter app that shows the text "Hello, world!"
-
Flutter gallery The flutter gallery app no longer lives in this repo. Please see the gallery repo.
-
Layers The layers vignettes show how to use the various layers in the Flutter framework. For details, see the layers README.
-
Platform Channel The platform channel app demonstrates how to connect a Flutter app to platform-specific APIs. For documentation, see https://flutter.dev/platform-channels/.
-
Platform Channel Swift The platform channel swift app is the same as platform channel but the iOS version is in Swift and there is no Android version.
Notes
Note on Gradle wrapper files in .gitignore:
Gradle wrapper files should normally be checked into source control. The example projects don't do that to avoid having several copies of the wrapper binary in the Flutter repo. Instead, the Gradle wrapper is injected by Flutter tooling, and the wrapper files are .gitignore'd to avoid making the Flutter repository dirty as a side effect of running the examples.
