Hello
First, the recommend should be put on the kdebase-workspace-bin package, as
the component responsible for power management is powerdevil (in kdebase-
workspace) and not plasma (which is just an interface to the daemon).
I agree that /etc/init.d/loadcpufreq is in the cpufrequtils package and is the
easier way to ensure the governor modules are loaded, although powerdevil
doesn't use /usr/bin/cpufreq*
