Comment 9 for bug 675108

This patch fixes a highly visible regression in Natty. I recognize that normally SRU policy requires that bugs be fixed in the development release first, but it appears that Oneiric has some serious changes to g-p-m, and the battery indicator does not even show up at all there now, so I can not even confirm that it suffers from the same issue. It sounds like the problem was caused by changes to different components in natty being out of sync, so it is entirely likely that the oneiric updates render this fix obsolete there. I therefore think that an exception should be granted and this patch should be released as an SRU now.
