On my Thinkpad X1 running F29 (Mate desktop if it matters), closing the lid doesn't put the computer to sleep reliably. I believe that it works the first time after boot, but after that it does not. I can manually suspend the system though. I'm starting with upower because I forgot that I had a problem with F27 as well when I updated to upower-0.99.8 from updates-testing (I rolled back to the previous upower release and it worked and I forgot to go back and investigate and file a bug report - sorry about that). I'm not sure what debugging steps, logs, etc. are useful - just let me know.
I have been seeing this on F30 as well but I haven't got enough data to file what I think would be a qualified bug. Alas, I've had a lot of battery drain from a closed laptop not having suspended. If there are diag steps I am happy to try them.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 29 is nearing its end of life. Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 29 on 2019-11-26. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '29'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 29 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Fedora 29 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2019-11-26. Fedora 29 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates.
