Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager
I have two batteries for my laptop, which has one battery bay. One battery is the original, dying unit, with less than 40% of design charge remaining usable. The other is a brand new replacement with 100% design charge usable. When I take out the new battery and put in the old battery, g-p-m applies the new battery's statistics to the old battery (and vice versa), so gets all the timings wrong. g-p-m / DeviceKit should be aware of multiple external battery devices and keep separate statistics on them: just having statistics for battery_BAT1 is not enough.
