So if I understand correctly, the upstream version 0.8.17 currently packaged in 16.04 is "prehistoric" (and my version in 14.04 LTS even more so) but the active branch based on upstream version 1.1.0-1 that you (Matthias) are working on is not?
In that case for 16.04 Ubuntu could do one of these: a) add a patch to move /usr/lib/pm- utils/sleep.d/95packagekit/95packagekit to /usr/lib/pm- utils/sleep.d/95packagekit (or /usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/45packagekit) (NB check it gets marked executable), or b) pull in a less prehistoric version of Packagekit that doesn't have that file, or c) fix pm-utils bug 1548486 and ignore this bug until (b), or d) add a patch to remove /usr/lib/pm- utils/sleep.d/95packagekit/95packagekit. The value of the 95packagekit hook (which tries to provoke PackageKit to refresh its cache on resuming) seems questionable, since it doesn't appear to have been working for several years and isn't in the later versions. So (c) or (d) seem like the best options, with (c) requiring no work at all for PackageKit. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to packagekit in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1548480 Title: 95packagekit sleep hook weirdly installed in a subdirectory is ignored Status in packagekit package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: The 95packagekit sleep hook provided by packagekit is installed in a subdirectory: /usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/95packagekit/95packagekit This has two effects: 1 the hook is not run; 2 owing to a bug in pm-utils, separately reported, the previous hook is run for a second time instead. If #1 was actually the desired effect, the hook should have been stored as /usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/95packagekit~ or just omitted. If the hook is manually installed as /usr/lib/pm- utils/sleep.d/95packagekit, it runs as expected (although the nature of the hook's operation means that it may have no obvious effect). This issue was observed in 14.04, packagekit 0.8.12-1ubuntu5; apparently was OK in 12.04. A packaging bug seems to have appeared when 95packagekit was updated in revision 1.2.10. Additionally, the hook 95packagekit is incorrectly numbered according to the pm-utils HOWTO.hooks convention and should apparently be eg 45packagekit.
