Public bug reported:
A recent update appears to have broken gnome-power-preferences. It is no longer
capable of putting the display to sleep after a specified period of inactivity.
To reproduce:
1. start gnome-power-preferences
2. in tab "On AC Power" set "Put display to sleep when inactive for: " to 1
minute
3. wait 1 minute (10 minutes, 1 hour, or several hours)
What I expect to happen: display to switch off after 1 minute.
What happens: display remains active indefinitely.
This was working up until the last 7 days or so.
