There should be a fixed version of xfce4-power-manager in unstable already:
xfce4-power-manager (0.8.5-3) unstable; urgency=low
.
[ Lionel Le Folgoc ]
* Switch to 3.0 (quilt) source format.
* debian/patches:
- 01_assume-hal-is-available.patch: do not check for hal presence on
the bus, it'll be spawned automatically on demand. Closes: #612611
- 02_fix-indirect-dso-linking.patch: fix FTBFS with --no-add-needed.
- series: add them.
* debian/rules: call xdt-autogen before configure, and clean up
autogenerated files on clean.
* debian/control:
- build-depends on automake, autoconf, libtool and xfce4-dev-tools.
- bump hal dep to (>= 0.5.14-4~) for the dbus activation.
- add myself to Uploaders.
.
[ Yves-Alexis Perez ]
* debian/control:
- update standards version to 3.9.1.
