Bug#686012: gnome-panel: power icon does not update

[Lucas Nussbaum]

Package: gnome-panel
Version: 3.4.2.1-2+b1
Severity: normal

Hi,

This is similar, but not identical to #674429 / #674748.

I'm using gnome3 "classic" (metacity + gnome-panel).

The "battery status" icon is not updated when it should (e.g. when
unplugging the power adapter).

The tooltip is updated, though. For example, currently, I have the "charging"
icon, and a "Laptop battery 10 hours 40 minutes remaining (91%)" tooltip (the
power adapter is not plugged in -- I shouldn't have the "charging" icon).

upower -m shows events:
