Hi Kapil,
Interesting, thanks for reporting! I'll fix that up in the next upload.
It's pretty hard to prevent bashisms from sneaking back in in new code
when bash is still the default shell. :-(
Cheers,
Bart

Hello,
/etc/acpi/hibernate.sh has the contents
#!/bin/sh
test -f /usr/share/acpi-support/power-funcs || exit 0
. /usr/share/acpi-support/suspendorhibernate hibernate
As far as I can see /bin/dash does not support the construct
. /usr/share/acpi-support/suspendorhibernate hibernate
i.e. the argument "hibernate" is not passed to the script
/usr/share/acpi-support/suspendorhibernate
The script thus prints out a usage statement and just suspends the
computer instead of hibernating it.
One fix is to use
set -- hibernate
just before the objectionable line.
Note that /etc/acpi/sleep.sh contains a similar line. As far as I
could tell
egrep -rl '^\.[[:space:]]+[^[:space:]]+[[:space:]]' /etc/acpi
didn't show any other files with a similar construct.
Regards,
Kapil.
