Thanks for the tip! I will investigate getting this upstream. However, I may need some guidance figuring out where upstream is.
acpid itself seems to be either extremely stable or unmaintained (nothing in a very long time on the sourceforge page). the patch in oe is simply called netlink.diff. Google lead me here where you can download a tarball of a modified acpid-1.0.10: http://www.tedfelix.com/linux/acpid-netlink.html however, no patches are provided. there is a launchpad page which documents that ubuntu seems to be creating patches from acpid-netlink https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/acpid/1.0.10-4 My best guess is that upstream is actually acpid-netlink. I will try to make contact. The real question which involves deeper investigation is why oe doesn't just pull directly from acpid-netlink (i.e. is netlink.diff just cherry picked changes from acpid-netlink?). I never considered how difficult it can be to find upstream!
