xmobar on debian SID

If you are using xmonad and xmobar on debian SID on a laptop, and don’t see any battery information, you may have test this solution.

If this didn’t solve your problem, try this patch on SysfsBatt.hs :

52c52
<     let path = sysfsPath ++ p ++ "/charge_full"
---
>     let path = sysfsPath ++ p ++ "/energy_full"
62c62
<     let path = sysfsPath ++ p ++ "/charge_now"
---
>     let path = sysfsPath ++ p ++ "/energy_now"
74c74
<     else showWithColors (printf "%.2f%%") stateInPercentage
---
>     else showWithColors (printf "Batt: %.2f%%") stateInPercentage

Then as before:

runhaskell Setup.lhs configure --user
runhaskell Setup.lhs build
runhaskell Setup.lhs install --user

Battery information should be visible.
