[Pkg-acpi-devel] Bug#462467: acpid: /proc/acpi/event has been deprecated in Linux kernel 2.6.24

[John Talbut]

I think this bug needs to be reclassified as important.  It is throwing 
up the same symptom as 
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=440870, i.e. 
Installation fails acpid: can't open /proc/acpi/event: No such file or 
directory.
Effects of this is that I get an "Errors were encountered while 
processing" message whenever I try to install or update with Aptitude 
and deporphan does not work.
