Bug Description
the installation of package cpufreqd along with indicator-cpufreq causes the indicator to malfunction.
It is capable of changing cpu frequency governor but not it's frequency. This is checked by cpufreq-info. Also if the value is changed to a specific frequency, then it is automatically set to the maximum.
The problem goes away purging package cpufreqd and probably reinstalling cpufrequtils.

Hmm, the indicator doesn't conflict cpufreqd directly, only when cpufreqd is running, right? Also, the indicator may serve for the purpose of indicating current frequency, which is switched by cpufreqd behind the scenes.
It might be better to detect a running instance of cpufreqd and disable switching frequency from the popup menu, perhaps?
