Package: acpi-support-base
Version: 0.109-1
Severity: important

        If /proc/acpi/event is not present, acpi-support-base
installation fails with the following message:

----
Setting up acpi-support-base (0.109-1) ...
acpid: can't open /proc/acpi/event: No such file or directory
invoke-rc.d: initscript acpid, action "restart" failed.
dpkg: error processing acpi-support-base (--configure):
----

        Beginning with kernel 2.6.24, the config help text recommends
turning off CONFIG_ACPI_PROC_EVENT, as ACPI events, "are now delivered
to user-space via either the input layer, or as netlink events."  With
this turned off, /proc/acpi/event is not created, which causes 'acpid'
to fail on launch.

        So, either:
        - acpi-support-base should tolerate the absence of
          /proc/acpi/event, since the scripts are leveraged by more than
          just acpid; or,
        - acpi-support-base should fail more gracefully if
          /proc/acpi/event is not present; or,
        - the package description should very clearly state that ACPI
          event support must be present.

        Thank you for your attention to this matter.

                                        Schwab

Description: 
 acpi-support - scripts for handling many ACPI events
 acpi-support-base - scripts for handling base ACPI events such as the power 
button

Changes: 
 acpi-support (0.109-2) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Reinstate thinkpad_acpi.modprobe to fix "Many Thinkpad X60 keys stop
     working" (Closes: #481253)
   * Fix incorrect usage of getXconsole instead of getXuser in lid.sh
     (Closes: #481534)
   * toshset, nvclock moved to Recommends instead of Depends (Closes: #410918,
     #434566, #438665, #445900 #457387)
   * Deprecate built-in suspend/hibernate handling in favor of dbus
     calls.
   * Support suspend/hibernate handling by dbus calls to a power
     management daemon or HAL, calling the pm-utils package, calling the
     hibernate package, or using the legacy built-in suspend/hibernate support.
     By default, send keys to the known power management daemons, or if they
     are not running, fall back to use dbus to a power management daemon,
     dbus directly to HAL, and direct calls to pm-utils.
   * Add Recommends for hal, pm-utils, dbus.
   * Ignore errors in 90-hdparm.sh while detecting if APM is supported,
     since not all drives support the HDIO_GET_IDENTITY operation.
     (Closes: #481685)
   * lid.sh doesn't give lid.sh.pre a chance to abort the close (Closes:
     #482708)
   * Replace dependency on console-tools by console-utilities, which is a
     virtual package that allows kbd | console-tools. (Closes: #481173)
   * Installation Fails if /proc/acpi/event Not Present (Closes: #481312)
   * Set DM-Upload-Allowed field to yes.
