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.
