Bug#447418: gnome-power-manager: system fails to handle suspend AC->battery

[Jerry Quinn]

Package: gnome-power-manager
Version: 2.18.3-1
Severity: important

The default configuration of gpm seems to be the following:

AC: close lid blanks the display
Battery: close lid suspends

The catch is - if I close the lid under AC then pull the plug, the laptop
doesn't suspend, even though my expectation is that the system will
be suspended under battery with closed lid.

Making this important, because the battery drains and the system dies
without my being aware of it.
