OK, I am trying the new package now -- it will take a little time for my second battery to run down.

However I am not optimistic that this will fix it: I don't see any changes to gpm-manager.c:battery_status_changed_primary() beyond adding some debug prints. I definitely don't see anything that would make it take any other batteries into account -- so I expect it will still trigger a shutdown when any one battery becomes empty, no matter whether there are other full batteries installed or not.

Anyway I will let you know either way, and include the log if it fails.
