I thought HAL was on the way out. IIRC, HAL used the pci.ids file
directly. If you still need it and want an easier solution, simply
append a zcat to the end of the update-pciids script right before it
exits. Something like " zcat ${DEST} > `echo ${DEST} | sed 's/\.gz//'` "
should work fine, though I haven't tested as I still have a really old
pci-utilities installed on my ancient daily driver that actually does
not support compressed pci.ids files.
