We received notice that mate-power-manager crashes on startup when run on
top of upower 0.99.5 on notebooks with a backlit keyboard. See #870121 for
details.
Knowing that stretch only has upower 0.99.4, the attached simple .debdiff
resolves this problem, in case people start backporting upower.
Consider accepting this as a stretch-pu.
