Dear Maintainer,

Please consider applying the following patch that corrects a wrong translation
that is displayed when using gnome-power-statistics in Spanish:

 msgid "Power"

 #. TRANSLATORS: this is the Y axis on the graph for the whole battery device
 #. TRANSLATORS: this is the X axis on the graph for the whole battery device


This string is displayed in the vertical axis of the graph shown in the
"History" tab when selecting "Laptop battery" in the list of the left of the
window, and when chossing "Rate" in the "Graph type" pull-down list.
Values on the vertical axis of said graph are labelled in Watt units (W), so
the values are of "potencia" (power), not of "energía" (energy) which would
require an energy unit like Wh (Watt-hour), J (Joule), etc.

Power is of course the *rate* of energy flow.
Current Spanish translation seems to confuse these concepts, possibly out of
uniformity with other uses of the word "power" in the English translation of
the program, which are all correctly translated as "energía". It is just not
correct to also translate "power" as "energía" in the context of labelling a
graph displaying values measured in Watts.

I'm a native Spanish speaker and an electronics engineer. But despite my
technical background, the use of "potencia/energía" I'm reporting is also that
of a layman.
