Ah, ok.

Could you please double-check that your /etc/yaird/Default.cfg contains
"TEMPLATE resume" alone on a line, and not just "RESUME"?

That was the only change from 0.0.12-12 to 0.0.12-13, and might not
have changed on your system if you chose to not upgrade the conffile.


I do not (yet) use SWSUSP myself, so rely on you and others to test if
it actually works with yaird. This means that I'd really appreciate it
if you could stay with us and help solve this, even if you have chosen
personally to abandon yaird in favor of initramfs-tools.
