See bug #208209 pbbuttonsd: replace_pmud considered harmful
at http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=208209
I got a nice reply from the pbbuttons author but nothing from the package
maintainer.
It seems that pbbuttonsd and pmud could merge in the future. My
understanding is that some features provided by pmud are not yet
provided by pbbuttonsd and that the way you attach a script to an event
is different.
Anyway the real problem is that replace_pmud is set to ON by default
on systems where pmud is installed and believed to do the job
and that doesn't really make sense.
