Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager
The indicator applet for the power management displays the status of my battery as red. The red icon with a fill level of about "nothing left" is suitable to imply the imminent demise of my laptop's battery. A closer look at the status reveals: A whopping 1h 10 minutes of runtime left (see screenshot). So WTF is the icon red when there's really a quite a lot of time left? It would be ok to display a yellow warning, but red always implies a critical status. I'd consider 15 minutes to be a crititcal threshold, but 1h:10m?
