Bug#665466: task-laptop: Should no more depend on apmd



Package: task-laptop
Version: 3.08
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

task-laptop currently depends on apmd. But the description of apmd says:

  Since lenny Debian kernels are not built with APM support anymore. You
  need to compile a kernel with apm support enabled to use this
  package. You need to boot the kernel with the "apm=on" option if you
  want to enable the driver.

  In most cases, users may want to know that there are newer power
  management schemes, like ACPI.

So IMHO task-laptop should drop the Depends on apmd or at most convert
it to a Suggests.
