Title:
  acpid's script "lid.sh" should *source* lid.sh.pre and lid.sh.post

Status in acpid package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  As of  acpid 1:2.0.10-1ubuntu2.3, the support script
  "/etc/acpi/lid.sh" allows users to define hooks
  "/etc/acpi/local/lid.sh.pre" and "lid.sh.post".

  However, these hooks are executed as shell commands, instead of being
  sourced by the current shell.  Thus, the environment and the ACPI
  functions is lost in the hook scripts, and one must set it up again.

  Sourcing the hook scripts makes them more useful.

  Trivial patch attached.
