I'm the author of Savepress and can assure you that it works just fine, at least on my own device installed with Fapman and apt-get. Only had one person testing it yet and as far as I know he managed to get it working out of the box. This is my first ever application and I don't have a linux background, which means i can't really relate to your problem and therefore can't help you much, sorry :/
What method did you use to install it?
Btw,
Just uploaded version 0.3-3 and a new package called savepress-editor, a GUI to configure the settings (to be a little non-xterm friendlier).

It`s working for me...but trough icon it didnt start only trough x-term,
also in not quite sure what it supposed to do
EDIT:
okay no i get it
when started via x-term it gives me an error
Unsupported data format character at 1 (%-d. %-m.)
BTW! Is it possible remove the notification from power-button-menu next to battery icon? Then its easier to notice

you press down the button -> it waits the X couple of seconds you chose -> activate/deactivate the saving-mode.
What comes to savepress-editor.. Is the error only when you use xterm, or when you use the icon too?
Is it possible to remove the notification in power-button-menu?
- Yes, could be used in a future update.
Is it possible to move it in the status-menu?
- I guess. I'm not really sure how tho.

by notification i didnt meant the d-bus notication is good but to add it maybe also to next of battery icon so you dont have to check it from power-button-menu

Did the terminal say something when exited the application?
Yeah, understood what you meant. I'll have a look.

Would be great if anyone else tested savepress-editor to know if the problem is global.

1. Installs dbus-scripts if you don't already got it.
2. Installs savepress. (i.e adds some files)
3. Kills dbus-scripts.
Which means savepress don't really touch your system before a reboot of your phone.
But remember guys, theres a reason why it's in the extras-devel and hasn't got a Announce yet
"The child of longpress (thanks to Matan) used to toggle a power-saving-mode with the right side lock-key. Features (all configable): *Set/restore freqlimits. *Disable wlan. *Toggle cellular radio. *Set/restore only-2g-mode. *Disable bluetooth. *Set X seconds you want to hold down the button. *A button is visible in the power-button-menu when active, whenever you foregt if savepress is active. "
This app sounds awesome, but wont install.
Thru xterm It says its not a debian package
