Package: hal
Version: 0.5.13-3
Severity: minor

Some machines don't have a PCI bus, and half a meg of installed size
makes a difference for them. But they run X and hal with it.

It would be lovely if pciutils could become recommended. Most people
would install it, since the installation of recommended packages is the
default. Those who don't want it could then omit it.

An alternative independent from changing the hal package could be the
provisioning of a package that provides pciutils but that has only dummy
utilities. Though that would be ugly, wouldn't it?

Kind regards,

Steffen
