Public bug reported:

I wear my Ubuntu Developer hat here.

ayatana-indicator-power 2.0.93-1, which was uploaded to Debian today, is
worth getting in Ubuntu for the LTS release, in my opinion. It seems to
me like it is a borderline bugfix release, but it does add new functions
which I consider new features.

Specifically, looking at the upstream diff between the version in
bionic-proposed and in Sid: https://github.com/AyatanaIndicators
/ayatana-indicator-power/compare/2.0.92...2.0.93

Here are the commits which I believe break Feature Freeze:
 - src/utils.(c|h): Port is_{mate,gnome,unity}() functions from -session 
indicator. -

https://github.com/AyatanaIndicators/ayatana-indicator-power/commit/59f9f20e6bd7a9b261a0600aa69acb8c26c52cc4

I say that these fixes are borderline bugfix because while they do not
seem to actively fix a problem, they simply the code a bit.
Specifically, the two major changes are adding separate functions for
desktop environment detection and converting to cmake-extras for some
modules.

These are enhancements which I believe to be trivial enough as to not
disrupt the package or the archive.

Thanks.
