indicator-sensors writes to disk rather frequently #16

I checked iotop because I was having a hard time getting my disks to timeout and spin down.

strace indicator-sensors shows it renaming files in its config directory every few seconds:

rename("/home/$USER/.config/indicator-sensors/sensors.YD36XY", "/home/$USER/.config/indicator-sensors/sensors") = 0

Should hopefully be reduced after https://github.com/alexmurray/indicator-sensors/commit/6bfed1755c2093fac826764f75af3ed021973ba2 - can you please test if possible?

Much better! I only noticed it happening a few times just after start up.
