Package: kdebase Version: 5:63 Severity: normal
Hello, kdebase, according to its description, is only a transition package that's meant to pull kde-plasma-desktop. But then, why does it also depend on hal? hal is of course considered obsolete these days and is being replaced by udev and the various *kit packages. But also, it's not the KDE metapackage's job to bring in tangential packages like that; the actual real packacges that depend on it, if any, should do that. So unless there's some good reason to keep it there, I would suggest dropping it from the package's dependency list.
