Per the original report: "2 owing to a bug in pm-utils, separately reported, the previous hook is run for a second time instead." Which might have an effect worse than just disconcerting a reader of /var/log/pm-suspend.log. Anyhow, even if it's not worth it for the remaining 18 months of 14.04

In the related bug #1763611, it is concluded that the Ubiquity installer incorrectly set up /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume to reference a non-existent disk UUID, causing a 30-40s delay in startup. Surely that file is obsolete (because it doesn't help resume from swapfile, eg) and should be
