[Bug 714356] Re: update-manager starts gnome-power-manager

[Jarno Suni]

I have both lubuntu-desktop and xubuntu-desktop installed; they use
xfce4-power-manager and gnome-power-manager, respectively. If xfce4
-power-manager is running, maybe update-manager could use it, instead.

  update-manager starts gnome-power-manager

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: update-manager

  When update-manager asks for my password, it also starts up gnome-
  power-manager.

  I have my "startup applications" set so that gnome-power-manager does
  NOT start.  I don't like the way it continuously sets my backlight
  intensity, over-riding what I have set it to at the moment.  However,
  if I update my packages, gnome-power-manager starts up anyway.  It
  seems a little odd that these two are related.

  A clumsy work-around: "sudo chmod -x /usr/bin/gnome-power-manager"
