Bug Description
/usr/lib/
It serves no purpose and consumes a bunch of CPU cycles to execute for a no-op every time pm-powersave is called.

Is this actually worth diverging from Debian on? Since hal is no longer part of the installed system, the "command_exists hal-disable-polling || exit $NA" check exits early. Yes it consumes some CPU cycles and should go away, but I would expect the actual impact is trivial.
