Subject: bug#70: xfce4-power-manager icon isn't updating

Package: xfce4-power-manager

Version: 1.4.1

The power manager icon isn't updating to reflect the correct battery level, although ACPI reports it just fine.  Suspend/reboot can update it to where it it at upon wake/login, but it fixes on just that percentage, and doesn't further update.  Some research suggests the xfce4-power-manager versions yield the issue; others point to upower.  Some Debian/Crunchbang threads suggest that downgrading to stable versions of upower fixes the solution, but I noticed Devuan only has one.

Also, this is an issue that has persisted since last year, when I tried Devuan on another system and it yielded the same issue: https://talk.devuan.org/t/xfce4-power-manager-icon/193

Version: 1.4.1-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

Please rebuild xfce4-power-manager against upower 0.9.23, because current
version from debian is build against upower 0.99, which changed from the
"changed" signal to "notify" as well as the function signature, so in devuan
xfce4-power-manager doesn't update power status.
