Title:
  89: /lib/hdparm/hdparm-functions: Syntax error: "fi" unexpected

Status in hdparm package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  in hdparm_options() there is a comment in else statement and after there is a fi 
  but else fi without nothing between is a syntax error.

  Not working:
          if hdparm_try_apm "$WANTED_DISK"; then
              if hdparm_is_on_battery; then
                  hdparm_set_option -B128
                  # set a spindown time of 3 minutes by default so the disk isn't
                  # constantly power cycling on a busy machine if spindown is
                  # enabled
                  hdparm_set_option -S36
               else
               #   hdparm_set_option -B254
              fi
          fi

  Fixed:
          if hdparm_try_apm "$WANTED_DISK"; then
              if hdparm_is_on_battery; then
                  hdparm_set_option -B128
                  # set a spindown time of 3 minutes by default so the disk isn't
                  # constantly power cycling on a busy machine if spindown is
                  # enabled
                  hdparm_set_option -S36
               #else
               #   hdparm_set_option -B254
              fi
          fi
