OK, I decided not to be a lazy ass and do the builds for you guys
myself. Here's the packages:

http://adamwill.fedorapeople.org/gnome-power-manager/gnome-power-manager-2.27.1-0.4.20090529git.fc11.i586.rpm (i586)
http://adamwill.fedorapeople.org/gnome-power-manager/gnome-power-manager-2.27.1-0.4.20090529git.fc11.x86_64.rpm (x86-64)
http://adamwill.fedorapeople.org/gnome-power-manager/gnome-power-manager-2.27.1-0.4.20090529git.fc11.src.rpm (src.rpm, just to be a good citizen)

If you're suffering this issue, please grab the appropriate build for
your system, give it a try, and let us know if it works. thanks!
