yes we do. But there is a better way we could do, patches accepted (no
time to do it myself):
   - have hibernate/suspend/... using upower
   - have other actions using proper daemons using dbus + polkit
(udisks, timedated...)
   - whatever else use polkit's features such as pkexec.

Would you be able to help us with that?

All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure 
contains a definitive record of customers, application performance, 
security threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this 
data and makes sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
