Let's see what the pmtools package contains:

madt: broken against modern acpidumps
acpixtract: exactly the same source is provided by iasl
turbostat: the source shipped with this package is outdated, a newer improved version can be found in the kernel tree.
acpidump: exactly the same source is provided by iasl
pmtest: pretty useless Perl script since it depends on a kernel module which is not compiled/provided with the package. Even with the Makefile being fixed up, the pmtest.c module does not get compiled on a modern Linux kernel.

The original source was at http://www.lesswatts.org/projects/acpi/git.php, but both the git tree and original download are gone. This looks very unmaintained/obsolete to me.

I propose to drop this package, or at least:
- remove acpixtract and acpidump, adding an optional dependency on iasl
- remove pmtest, it is a testing tool on which nobody has reported the missing pmtest.c dependency so far.
- turbostat: prepare a new package with up-to-date source (or drop it until someone requests it in which case a new "turbostat" package should be created)
- madt: unmaintained, does not work for modern systems => drop it?

When the package is empty because the above points are followed, drop this package completely?
