[Pkg-xfce-devel] Bug#845738: [xfce4-power-manager] Display brightness key regression

[pkk at spth.de (Philipp Klaus Krause)]

Package: xfce4-power-manager
Version: 1.4.4-4
Severity: normal

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---

I use xfce on my Debian GNU/Linux testing system. I tend to keep xfce
packages current. The option for handling brightness keys in the xfce
power manager is set. About 10 days ago, the brightness keys both still
worked on my Schenker S403 (based on Clevo W840SU). Today, I noticed
that the key for reducing display brightness no longer works. The key
for increasing brightness still works. Under a different OS on the same
device both keys still work.
