Use logind for suspend/hibernate/poweroff/reboot

Yep it's planned already :-)
On the Ubuntu side, I think consolekit is still used, do you know if they
expect to switch soon ?

The switch is already taking place in saucy - hence why I added the
depends; since you make use of the interface, and can't assume that
users will have it any more, you should depend on it. It should be
removed if/when you port. :-)

Cheers!

Hello,

logind is now used by default! :)
If logind is available, the dock will use it first to check if the computer can poweroff, reboot, suspend, hibernate and hybrid-sleep. => https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~cairo-dock-team/cairo-dock-plug-ins/plug-ins/revision/2822

In other words, it means that if logind is available ConsoleKit is no longer used as well as UPower's functionalities for suspending and hibernating the system (but ConsoleKit is still supported for older systems).

This bug was fixed in the package cairo-dock-plug-ins - 3.3.0-0ubuntu1
