Package: xfce4-sensors-plugin
Version: 0.10.99.5~svn-r4998-1
Severity: normal

After the last package upgrade, I can no longer configure the Sensor plugin.
If I right-click it and select "Properties", it seems to crash (silently 
disappears from the panel).
This is repeated when I re-add it to the panel and try to open "Properties" 
again.
Removing the plugin configuration file from ~/.config/xfce4/panel/ and 
restarting the panel
does not solve the problem.

Additionally, the following message is displayed on adding the plugin 
(although, as I understand,
the issue described here should never lead to a crash on opening the 
configuration window):

------------
"hddtemp" was not executed correctly, although it is executable. This is most 
probably due to
the disks requiring root privileges to read their temperatures, and "hddtemp" 
not being setuid root.

An easy but dirty solution is to run "chmod u+s /usr/sbin/hddtemp" as root user 
and restart
this plugin or its panel.

Calling "/usr/sbin/hddtemp -n -q /dev/sda" gave the following error:
/dev/sda: open: Permission denied

with a return value of 256.
