Bug Description
The fallback status icon shown for gnome-power-manger swaps between hidden and visible states on each battery status refresh - approximately every 30 seconds.
Using dbus-monitor, the following errors are relevant;
When the icon is removed:
signal sender=:1.3 -> dest=(null destination) serial=436 path=/org/
uint32 196
int32 0
And when the icon restores:
signal sender=:1.3 -> dest=(null destination) serial=434 path=/org/
uint32 195
int32 0
These repeat constantly, on a 30-second cycle. However, when the battery is low, this rate of change increases to around once every 10 seconds.
From the research I have done, this is due to indicator-
Rolling back to a Debian build of gnome-power-manager fixes the problem - isolating indicator-
$apt-cache policy indicator-
