Package: upower
Version: 0.9.5-5
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
I'm seeing this in top:

Typically, I'm seeing upowerd at >50% and up to >90%.
Running strace shows very frequent updates to files in /var/lib/upower.
A typical example is:
rename("/var/lib/upower/history-charge-DELL_0M7879-46-628.dat.6GSMNV",
"/var/lib/upower/history-charge-DELL_0M7879-46-628.dat") = 0
It is not clear that is enough to show this high of a load, but the updates
are far more frequent than I can imagine are needed.
This started to occur after a recent update. I generally use "apt-get -t
testing dselect-upgrade" so maybe I've mixed things up too much.
I have searched the upower pages but see no way to control update frequencies.
Or if it is event driven, something is generating events too frequently.
Any help appreciated.
