If you install the attached file hooks.resume to /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/resume and scripts.local-top.resum to /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/local-top/resume, the resume binary is automatically integrated into the initrd upon installation of a Debian kernel. If you have already installed a kernel, run update-initramfs -u. You should consider to add this to the postinst script of your package (See the udev package how to do this). An last but not least, please call the package uswsusp and *not* muswsusp. Hint: Google for uswsusp and for muswsusp. You will then know why uswsusp is better.
