Thanks Matthias, Amr.

I reported this against Trusty LTS and the Fix would mean back-porting
or otherwise introducing 0.8.17 over 0.8.12, probably not going to
happen.

So that the unnecessary, wrongly named and wrongly located file might be
removed (though I suppose anyone who cares can actually do so
themselves), a patch is needed against the packaging of PackageKit in
Trusty.

I can't see a way to file a bug against a particular release's packaging
of a package, so I've linked this to the Trusty branches with a
suggested distribution patch for /contrib/pm-utils/Makefile.am that
should omit the redundant file and remove it if present.

Title:
  95packagekit sleep hook weirdly installed in a subdirectory is ignored

Status in packagekit package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  The 95packagekit sleep hook provided by packagekit is installed in a 
subdirectory: 
      /usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/95packagekit/95packagekit

  This has two effects:

  1    the hook is not run;

  2    owing to a bug in pm-utils, separately reported, the previous
  hook is run for a second time instead.

  If #1 was actually the desired effect, the hook should have been
  stored as /usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/95packagekit~ or just omitted.

  If the hook is manually installed as /usr/lib/pm-
  utils/sleep.d/95packagekit, it runs as expected (although the nature
  of the hook's operation means that it may have no obvious effect).

  This issue was observed in 14.04, packagekit 0.8.12-1ubuntu5;
  apparently was OK in 12.04. A packaging bug seems to have appeared
  when 95packagekit was updated in revision 1.2.10.

  Additionally, the hook 95packagekit is incorrectly numbered according
  to the pm-utils HOWTO.hooks convention and should apparently be eg
  45packagekit.
