[John Goerzen]

Package: xfce4-power-manager-plugins
Version: 1.4.1-1
Severity: critical

This package has caused my system to hang on multiple occasions.  Right now, I am seeing this:

$ ps auxww | egrep 27036\|USER

Yep, using 1.6GB RAM.  And this laptop has been suspended most of the time since Jan. 20.  Also:
