[Pkg-acpi-devel] Bug#752373: Confirming issue with acpi-support 0.141-3, acpi-support-base 0.141-3 possibly involved as well.

[Matt Quinn]

Dear Maintainer,

I have encountered the same issue that Gijs Hillenius has documented in 
this bug report. On Tuesday June 24th 2014 I dist-upgraded several 
packages on a Debian laptop, including acpi-support, acpi-support-base, 
and acpi-fakekey (from 0.141-2 to 0.141-3). I closed the laptop that 
night and discovered the next morning that the system was still running 
and had not in fact suspended. After looking around online I came across 
this bug report and contacted Gijs.

Gijs suggested that I downgrade and hold the acpi-support package at 
version 0.141-2, as that resolved the issue for him. I did so, but I 
also had to downgrade and hold the acpi-support-base package at version 
0.141-2 as well in order to restore proper sleep/suspension of my system 
on lid close. I was able to leave the acpi-fakekey package at 0.141-3 
without issue. (Note that I also tried just downgrading 
acpi-support-base while upgrading acpi-support and acpi-fakekey to 
0.141-3 to see if the problem lies solely with acpi-support-base; this 
did not resolve the issue, leading me to believe that the issue involves 
both packages).

For what it's worth, here's the relevant section of dmesg detailing the 
events that occur when I close and open the laptop lid with both 
acpi-support and acpi-support-base at 0.141-3:
