mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag
from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the
bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to

Title:
  implement upower interface

Status in Snappy:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  I am developing an application that constantly displays CPU usage and
  Battery status to the user. For the sake of simplicity, I launch bash
  (which itself launches other processes such as grep) to obtain the
  required information.

  When I "snap" my application, Snappy's security model does not allow
  my application to launch bash as an external process. I am using the
  following programs/processes:

  - grep
  - awk
  - upower
  - bash (which launches the other processes with UNIX pipes)

  If you need to check the code that I use to obtain CPU usage & battery info, please see:
      https://github.com/WinT-3794/QDriverStation/blob/master/src/utilities.cpp#L44

  You may want to check my snapcraft.yaml file:
      https://github.com/WinT-3794/QDriverStation/blob/master/etc/deploy/linux/snapcraft/snapcraft.yaml

  Note that I have tried my application with both the "strict" and
  "devmode" confinements.

  Is there any interface specific for my configuration, or must I change
  something in my snapcraft.yaml?

  Thanks for the support!
