about such bugs.

Well, we do care but:

- there is a lot to do

- that bug concerns a non default option/a technical one, so it's not
the most important item on the todolist

- the number of comments make it difficult to read (one needs to spend
like an hour trying to understand what's going on)

What would be useful:

- update the bug description to be an accurate summary of the situation
(it seems from recent comments that only the documentation needs
updating? if the summary was reflecting what needs to be done and
sparing people to have to read 48 verbose comments to figure that out it
would help to get the item picked up and resolved)

- if you want to update the documentation and submit a merge request
that would probably help to get the change in

Title:
  Hibernate option is missing from menu in 13.10 even after trying to
  re-enable

Status in Ubuntu Documentation:
  Confirmed
Status in “indicator-session” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I upgraded from raring to saucy on my notebook, where hibernate was
  enabled and working fine. Now the hibernate option is missing. I
  followed the instructions on how to reenable hibernate
  (https://help.ubuntu.com/13.10/ubuntu-help/power-hibernate.html) but
  the option is still missing. Hibernating from terminal via s2disk
  works.

  File exists with proper content and permissions:
  $ sudo ls -l /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/com.ubuntu.enable-hibernate.pkla
  -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 111 Sep 29 18:52 /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/com.ubuntu.enable-hibernate.pkla

  $ sudo cat /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/com.ubuntu.enable-hibernate.pkla
  [Re-enable hibernate by default]
  Identity=unix-user:*
  Action=org.freedesktop.upower.hibernate
  ResultActive=yes

  -----

  Solution found by Jeffery To (jefferyto) in comment #13 to enable
  hibernate menuentry:

  File /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/com.ubuntu.enable-
  hibernate.pkla needs to contain:

      [Re-enable hibernate by default in upower]
      Identity=unix-user:*
      Action=org.freedesktop.upower.hibernate
      ResultActive=yes

      [Re-enable hibernate by default in logind]
      Identity=unix-user:*
      Action=org.freedesktop.login1.hibernate
      ResultActive=yes

  Then reboot and run 'killall indicator-session-service' in terminal
  from your session. For background see #13.

  However this is not persistent across reboots.
