[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#819666: Hack for disabling CriticalPowerAction

[Thomas Orgis]

Just to give a little spin to this issue: I disabled the
CriticalPowerAction on my system via


apt-get source upower
apt-get build-dep upower

This patch:

 upower (0.99.17-1) unstable; urgency=medium
 
   * New upstream version 0.99.17


Then:

apt-get --build source upower
dpkg -i upower_0.99.17-99thor_amd64.deb

(matching libupower package, too, but that isn't necessary, I think)


Of course, a proper setting upstream would be preferrable, but I needed
a solution now for battery gauge training where the voltage is below 2%
for a considerable time.

Alrighty then,

Thomas
