Dare I ask why keyboard depends on powerd? Do we know what this commit
was any who did it? powerd is a olpc XO specific thing so is never
going to be present on anything other than an XO. I suspect it's
suppose to hide those options if it's on a XO due to them being
generally hidden by deployments and hence is the check is wrong.
