[Pkg-acpi-devel] Bug#664041: Bug#664041: acpi-support: load cycles problem revisited

[Igor Palmieri]

If you allow me to suggest, I also think it´s best to ship it with hdparm
package. The same logic explicited in README.distributions of pm-utils
applies to acpi-support.

Also, it would create again a dependency between acpi-support and hdparm
just because of this script.

Many thanks

Igor
