Package: laptop-mode-tools
Version: 1.04-1.1
Severity: normal

During installation the files lm_ac_adapter, lm_battery and lm_lid are
written to /etc/acpi/events and laptop-mode is started. Unfortunately
these files are never parsed as it appears the acpid daemon caches
the known files in /etc/acpi/events when started. Only by restarting
acpid will the files be parsed as expected.

When laptop-mode-tools is purged a similar problem occurs: acpid still
thinks the lm_* files are in /etc/acpi/events and tries to call scripts
in /etc/acpi/actions which no longer exist, resulting in error messages
in /var/log/acpid.

A solution would be to restart acpid (if appropriate) in the postinst
and postrm scripts.

Thanks for a great package. I hope this helps.
