I personally would use only pm-utils and sleepd and would configure anything 
else using /etc/acpi/battery.d and /etc/acpi/ac.d scripts, though I adjust 
backlight brightness manually because I often need full brightness in the 
sunshine when on battery.

There is /etc/pm, which is for pm-utils.  The README explains how it works.

sleepd is independent from pm-utils, except that sleepd runs pm-suspend (by 
default) to suspend the system.
