[Pkg-acpi-devel] Bug#499932: /etc/init.d/acpid: 60: Syntax error: Missing '))

This bug occurs because the script is not safe to be run with /bin/sh
being actually dash.
This bug should be in fact renamed to: "Initscript not compatible with
dash" or something similar.
To fix this on your computer, change the shebang line to:
#! /bin/bash -e

Then, upgrade to the new version and when dpkg asks to overwrite the
script with maintainer version, just accept.

Hope it helps.
