Package: dbus
Version: 0.50-3
Severity: important
When upgrading to the experimental package, i get:
Setting up dbus (0.50-3) ...
Starting system message bus: dbus.
Starting Hardware abstraction layer: /usr/sbin/hald: unrecognized option
`--drop-privileges'
usage : hald [--daemon=yes|no] [--verbose=yes|no] [--help]
--daemon=yes|no Become a daemon
--verbose=yes|no Print out debug (overrides HALD_VERBOSE)
--use-syslog Print out debug messages to syslog instead
--of stderr.
Use this option to get debug messages if
--HAL runs as
daemon.
--retain-privileges Run as root instead of normal user (calling
--of
external scripts to modify fstab etc. will
--work)
--help Show this information and exit
--version Output version information and exit
The HAL daemon detects devices present in the system and provides the
org.freedesktop.Hal service through the system-wide message bus provided
by D-BUS.

run-parts: /etc/dbus-1/event.d/20hal exited with return code 1

Closing this as it was always just a minor cosmetical error and isn't relevant
anymore.
