Hi,

This is not happening on my laptop or desktop PC.

I can add the power manager panel plugin and it works (shows the battery icon
and the percent of battery on the laptop, for example)

Maybe not all laptops are the same and some confuse the xfce power manager.

Could you try to collect some debug information?

Maybe something from Xorg log files, messages, to understand what is happening
on your PC?


Regarding the "naming" issue, there used to exist and "xfce" meta port that has
been removed more than 10 years ago, it's not just deprecated.

At the time a new "xfce4" port was created for the new version of xfce.
Unluckily since then the actual name of the package differed from the name of
the port. This is not easily changed without forcing all existing users to
modify their installations. We try to avoid such disruption.
