Hello.
While doing the upgrade hal-0.5.7.1 -> hal-0.5.9, hal was dying on me at
startup time. After half an hour of hand-wringing, I found out that it
couldn't find /var/cache/hald to place cache files in it and so simply
terminated.
It might be a good idea to add a line to the hal installation
instructions like:
Newer hal versions use a cache diretory to place runtime information
there, create it with
mkdir -p /var/cache/hald && \
chown haldaemon:haldaemon /var/cache/hald
Or somesuch.
greets,
jens
