We need access to it early in the boot sequence. Fixing the initscript to use it in /usr would still leave every user that has a separate /usr partition without the functionality, so this would be a suboptimal fix at best. On the other hand, if on_ac_power is supplied under /bin, it will be available on all systems. I am cloning this bug and reassigning the cloned bug to powermgmt-base, requesting that on_ac_power and friends be shipped inside either /bin or /sbin. When/if powermgmt-base moves on_ac_power to /bin or /sbin, the initscript packages should probably be updated accordingly to add versioned dependencies (or conflicts -- didn't check that yet) with powermgmt-base, thus I am keeping this bug open and blocked by the one in powermgmt-base.
