Patch

sysutils/conky on FreeBSD does not display battery status correctly. Basica=
lly,
the only thing that works is ${battery}. ${battery_short} does not display =
the
shortened string in several cases. ${battery_percent} always displays 100%=
=20
regardless of the actual load state of the battery. ${battery_bar} therefore
also just displays a 100% bar.

The attached patch fixes all of these. Most notably, the previous
implementation of ${battery_percent} is just wrong - it wouldn't display the
available battery capacity (in percent of the total capacity), but rather t=
he
"wear state" of the battery, i.e. how much of the total capacity it has "lo=
st"
during it use in comparison to the available capacity when it was brand-new.
(This is admittedly an interesting parameter on it's own, but clearly mostly
useless for the purposes of conky.)
