Subject: acpid and hald conflict
Package: acpid
Severity: normal

*** Please type your report below this line ***

apt-get install acpid on up-to-date sid fails :
Starting Advanced Configuration and Power Interface daemon: acpid: can't open
/proc/acpi/event: Device or resource busy
invoke-rc.d: initscript acpid, action "start" failed.

lsof says the curript is hald :
lsof /proc/acpi/event
COMMAND    PID USER   FD   TYPE DEVICE SIZE       NODE NAME
hald-addo 4018  hal    4r   REG    0,3    0 4026532096 /proc/acpi/event

No idea if it is a bug or if it has no chance to work.
If hald and acipd can not work together, it should be IMHO mentioned in
conflicts field of these pacakges.
