Yeah, I think it's probably mostly me being disappointed earlier, and not so much the Ubuntu side. The feeling that I have had is that because there are no individual package maintainers, it's hard to find somebody on the other side who feels responsible for the package, and who is willing to discuss merging of sets of patches etc., so that you can discuss the chances of acceptance _before_ you do the work. It's so much easier if you can talk to a person, launchpad sometimes feels like throwing stuff into a black hole. /rant Things suddenly got much easier when I got into direct contact with you. But I shouldn't be blaming Ubuntu, my expectations just didn't match the way Ubuntu works. I don't have time to work on the Debian package myself (either as maintainer or for sifting through the delta between Debian and Ubuntu), but I definitely am happy to accept fixes upstream in reasonable-sized chunks. Anyway, as Bart points out, there's another issue: 4. Ubuntu is PHASING OUT this package. They have already moved suspend to pm-utils (but have failed to remove suspend support from acpi-support). They're currently moving hotkey translation to hal. This means that soon we will have no upstream that we can follow! Or we should ensure that Ubuntu's hal changes are included in our version of hal as well -- no clue how those packages are related, or whether Ubuntu's changes are going into upstream hal. Since the last time I had a chance to speak with Bart about this, there's been quite a bit of progress on phasing out the package for Ubuntu; in jaunty, we've dropped a number of quirk scripts related to suspend/resume, as well as close to 30 of the ACPI event-handling scripts from /etc/acpi - basically: all those scripts that were being used to synthesize key events (which doesn't work with recent kernels anyway) and which we could verify were being handled by hal.
