I too got hit by this and lost a few hours in debugging it.

laptop-mode-tools is old cruft... its description makes it sound much
more useful than I gather it actually is, and given that this particular
bug has been open for over a year indicates it's not likely to get
fixed.

Since installation of this package has rather severe consequences (which
I've verified on two of my own machines), I think we should go ahead and
just drop it from the archive.

If there are any other bits in lmt worth retaining, I suppose people can
file bugs to get them moved into pm-utils as appropriate.
