[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#812844: upower segfault on my ARM laptop

[Alexandre Detiste]

Package: upower
Version: 0.99.3-1+b3
Severity: important

upower does segfault every time; well the kernel is maybe a bit weird.
It's the ChromeOS one recompiled by the semi-automated Arch bootstrap
to enable features needed by systemd.

This is the last device opened: (reproducible)
