 olpc-update creates /etc/ohm/inhibit-suspend and /etc/inhibit-ebook-sleep
 (trac #6208) files to prevent suspend from interrupting an update.  But if
 the user powers down in the middle of an olpc-update (or while olpc-update
 is checking the server for an update), those files will be left in /etc
 and the XO will never suspend from that point forward.

 ohm should export a temporary interface for inhibiting suspend just until
 the next reboot -- either files in a tmpfs (/var/run or /var/lib/ohm, but
 /var/lib/ohm would have to be explicitly created as a tmpfs) or else a
 dbus interface.
