- Important note for Debian package maintainers
- ---------------------------------------------
-
- If your package needs to be notified of APM events then it should
- install a script or scripts under /etc/apm/ as follows.
-
- If the order of execution of a set of scripts does not need to depend
- on the event then place the scripts in /etc/apm/scripts.d/ and
- symlink to them from /etc/apm/event.d/ .
-
- If the order of execution of a set of scripts needs to depend on the
- event then place the scripts in /etc/apm/scripts.d/ and symlink to
- them from /etc/apm/suspend.d/, /etc/apm/resume.d/ and /etc/apm/other.d/
- with names that (due to their lexicographical order) result in the
- correct sequencing of the scripts.
-
- For example, suppose you want to run a before b on suspend, but a
- after b on resume. Then put scripts a and b in /etc/apm/scripts.d/
- and create the following symlinks:
-
- /etc/apm/suspend.d/20a --> ../scripts.d/a
- /etc/apm/suspend.d/80b --> ../scripts.d/b
- /etc/apm/resume.d/20b --> ../scripts.d/b
- /etc/apm/resume.d/80a --> ../scripts.d/a
-
- Do not put anything but symlinks in /etc/apm/suspend.d/,
- /etc/apm/resume.d/ and /etc/apm/other.d/ .
-
- Links in /etc/apm/event.d/ are run in their lexicographical order
- _after_ all the links in /etc/apm/suspend.d/, /etc/apm/resume.d/ and
- /etc/apm/other.d/ .
