It's unhandled by default, I see no reason why not to add these event handlers. The examples can be found by the links below — they work for me, I tested.

Hmm did I forget to mark the package as acpid? Can't edit the bug…

AFAICT the default does nothing other than write logging messages, not really sure why this is an issue considering in order to make this useful you'd have to edit it anyway.

Hmm, I think you're right — I didn't look at the default script closer, now I see that handled actions (e.g. lid close, button/power) simply trigger a log message. So, given these buttons actually do something, there's something else in the system that handles these actions… May be a compositor/WM? But I'm on i3, and see nothing relevant in the config.

Ok, I think the report might be closed then, at least until I figure where else it's handled except acpid.
