Bug Description
Binary package hint: acpi
The last upload of acpid causes a problem on systems which do not have the acpi-support package installed:
acpid (1.0.10-5ubuntu2) lucid; urgency=low
* Source /usr/share/
-- Jonathan Thomas <email address hidden> Fri, 15 Jan 2010 19:59:47 -0500
The sourcing of the file happens unconditionally, and the acpid package does not depend on acpi-support, which provides that file.
This could be solved by adding acpi-support to acpid's depends, however, this isn't desirable because it pulls in several X related packages which we would not want on a server.
Instead, let's only source that file if it exists. If it doesn't, then there is a foolproof failure case handling at the bottom of that script.

Trivial debdiff attached.
Proposing for Lucid. Might have to be in an SRU, if the release team decides against accepting this for Lucid release.
