xfce4-taskmanager displays wrong units

[A.Kromic]

Binary package hint: xfce4-taskmanager

Package: xfce4-taskmanager
Version: 0.4.0~rc2-1ubuntu1
Severity: normal

xfce4-taskmanager displays "kB" in the VM-Size column, but the numbers
displayed are obviously in _bytes_, since the value would represent
_gigabytes_ on a system which has less than gigabyte VM storage.

Example: init VM-Size: "1667072 kB" RSS: "118 kB"
  firefox-bin VM-Size: "154693632 kB" RSS: "8058 kB"

Of course, init uses 1628 KB and firefox 147 MB as reported by gPS and
top. I was confused for some time, until I realized it's a bug.

I generated this report using reportbug.

Regards,
A.K.
