Public bug reported: Binary package hint: uswsusp
After suspending to disk and resuming a couple of times using s2disk (via pm-hibernate, devicekit-power and gnome-power-manager), programs start behaving oddly, e.g., failing to find symbols in a shared library. Running debsums on the package containing the library in question shows that it's changed from the version from the package. However, immediately after a reboot, debsums shows that the file is OK after all. The library in question was mapped into at least one process at the time of the suspend, so I suspect that the copy in the page cache was corrupted. On an earlier occasion, Google Chrome (and some other programs -- I don't recall the details) began segfaulting on startup. Again a reboot resolved the problem. I since switched pm-hibernate to use the `kernel' method and haven't experienced any more problems of this nature since. This is a shame because uswsusp is rather faster (and I'd rather like to be able to use s2both). The laptop in question is a ThinkPad T500; I turned on the compression and MD5 options. (I assumed that the MD5 checksum would ensure that the compression hadn't damaged anything, and haven't done further experimentation with the uswsusp options.)
