Battstat-applet and GNOME 2.19.x

[Richard Hughes <hughsient gmail com>]

Okay, I'm re-opening an old discussion:

Can we remove or deprecate battstat-applet for 2.19.x?

GNOME Power Manager is being shipped by 99% of the distros, and it's
just confusing to have another battery applet in the "Add to panel"
dialog, especially now as they sometimes show different numbers.

Seeing as GNOME has a formal external dependency on HAL, I don't see how
the argument of g-p-m not running without HAL is still valid.

So, let the discussion commence. Thanks,

Richard.
