Package: acpi
Version: 0.09-6
Severity: normal

  acpi dies with a floating point exception on my computer:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ acpi
Floating point exception

  Running it in gdb reveals that it's dividing by zero at line 121 of
acpi.c:

(gdb) run
Starting program: /tmp/acpi-0.09/acpi 
     Battery 1: Discharging, 37%, 00:00:29 remaining

Program received signal SIGFPE, Arithmetic exception.
0x0804987b in print_battery_information (batteries=0x84bb158, 
    show_empty_slots=0) at acpi.c:393
393                                             seconds = 60 * 
remaining_capacity / present_rate;

  present_rate is zero, hence the floating point exception.  I
patched the code to print " (not actually discharging)" when present_rate
is zero, and the crash went away.
