Comment 1 for bug 127135

Writing down harvested info:

KACPID is a kernel process.
The package acpid, is the user side package that discuss with KACPID.
One can wonder what happens if acpid is not installed.

Bug #75174 is about the same, but have been made on acpi, that is
just a package giving information about acpi, so seems to me it is on
a bad package. Bug #75174 is triggered only when CPU temperature become too hot.

Upstream kernel bug 3679 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3679
was similar too, but got closed because of missing info. However this one was trigger on a resume rather than high temperature CPU.

Upstream kernel bug 6944 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6944 was interesting too, but was marked invalid. I note following comment there: "I dont know what ive done. but it seems to be behaving now. i installed quite a number of applications and it seems to be working, like gnome-power-manager, acpid and laptop-mode-tools and many others not sure which one actually worked" Sure missing acpid seems very dangerous.

Although acpid seems a reasonable package to put this bug, it seems no contact information is associated with it, making all bugs there not much listen too. Seems the normal place to put this is on linux-source-[version affected].
