While not a totally critical bug it is sad that upstream did not respond at all
yet which I guess everyone here was waiting for as well which made nothing move
at all :-/.
At this point it might be worth considering to take that as a delta -
subscribing a few to hope one finds time to pick it up.
If you want you might ping on the upstream bug once more.

Title:
Sleep hook in a subdirectory ignored but causes double execution of
previous hook
Status in pm-utils:
Unknown
Status in pm-utils package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
The set of sleep hooks provided in /usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d includes
one (95packagekit/95packagekit) that is stored in a subdirectory. This
has two effects:
1 the hook is not run;
2 the previous hook, currently /usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/95led, is
run for a second time instead.
Presumably #1 is wrong, and results from an installation fault in
packagekit, separately reported as bug 1548480.
#2 occurs because the function run_hooks() in /usr/lib/pm-utils/pm-
functions computes a list of to-be-executed hooks that includes
directories but neither fully validates each such hook as a regular
file nor handles a set of to-be-executed hooks in a subdirectory.
At lines 243 on, there is a code path with no else clause through
which the $hook from the previous iteration can be accidentally
reused:
if [ -f "$syshooks/$base" ]; then
hook="$syshooks/$base"
elif [ -f "$phooks/$base" ]; then
hook="$phooks/$base"
fi
An easy fix is to insert the missing else clause before the fi line so
that the script skips the subdirectory or other non-regular file and
carries on with the next correctly specified hook:
if [ -f "$syshooks/$base" ]; then
hook="$syshooks/$base"
elif [ -f "$phooks/$base" ]; then
hook="$phooks/$base"
else
continue
fi
Observed in Lubuntu 14.04.3,4 with pm-utils 1.4.1-13ubuntu0.1,2.
However the relevant pm-utils code dates back to 2008, pm-utils
upstream version 1.1.0.
