Simple parameters to set temperature and other sensors are no longer available.

[Sudhir Khanger]

Hello,

Previously, Indicator Sysmonitor had simple parameters that could be added to 'Customize Output' to be shown in Unity Top Bar. These options (eg. acpitz-virtual-0, hddtemp///sda) are no longer available and instead new complex parameters are available. I can no longer access temperature and fan sensors. Other new sensors are also not working.

PPA has version number 0.4.2 but the one installed on my system says 0.5.1~unreleased.

The following sensor readings don't seem to be supported anymore:
{acpitz-virtual-0//temp1}
{coretemp-isa-0000//core 0} (and similar for each additional core)
{nvidia//gputemp}

Below is what happens when the indicator is launched with the following output string:

cpu {cpu} {acpitz-virtual-0//temp1} 0:{coretemp-isa-0000//core 0} 1:{coretemp-isa-0000//core 1} 2:{coretemp-isa-0000//core 2} 3:{coretemp-isa-0000//core 3} | mem {mem} | hdd {hddtemp///dev/sda} | gpu {nvidia//gputemp}

$ indicator-sysmonitor

    res[sensor] = self._exec(settings["sensors"][sensor][1])

I also see that the version in the Preferences panel is 0.5.1~unreleased.

I have the same problem under ubuntu 12.10 with 0.5.1-unreleased. Screenshots are identical to the bug report.
