I disagree.  I use it!

There will be an upload at some point, some I have figured out a defconf
script bug.  The powerstatd-crypt package will disappear but the regular
powerstatd package will function with encryption (i.e. will have the
functionality of powerstatd-crypt).

The alternative (simpler for upgrades) would be to remove `powerstatd'
and keep `powerstatd-crypt', but since the upstream package is named
`powerstatd' it is better in the long-run to keep that name.
