Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: update-manager
When update-manager asks for my password, it also starts up gnome-power-
manager.
I have my "startup applications" set so that gnome-power-manager does
NOT start. I don't like the way it continuously sets my backlight
intensity, over-riding what I have set it to at the moment. However, if
I update my packages, gnome-power-manager starts up anyway. It seems a
little odd that these two are related.
A clumsy work-around: "sudo chmod -x /usr/bin/gnome-power-manager"
