No cpufreqd does not depend on neither pmud, apmd or pbbuttond,
it only uses kernel interfaces : either /proc/apm, /proc/pmu,
/proc/acpi or sysfs equivalent.
I already repied this to Rory offlist :
pradalie@ceruse:~$ apt-cache depends cpufreqd
cpufreqd
Depends: debconf
Depends: libc6
Moreover I looked at the code while tracking a missing fclose, and the
only stuff needed by cpufreqd is /dev/pmu, but not at all pmud.
cpufreqd speaks directly to the kernel.
Maybe you just did not set the good driver in /etc/cpufreqd.conf
pradalie@ceruse:~$ grep pmu /etc/cpufreqd.conf
pm_type=pmu #(acpi, apm or pmu)
