Package: mic2 Version: 0.24.4-1 Severity: important User: [email protected] Usertags: halectomy
Hi, HAL has been deprecated and declared dead upstream so we want to get rid of it eventually in Debian [1]. mic2 has a Recommends: hal dependency. Looking through the code it seems to be used in tools/mic-image-writer Given that apparently it can also use udisks, which is the modern replacement for handling storage devices on Linux nowadays, and apparently DBus_udisk() is tried first (line 446) and DBus_hal() is only the fallback, it seems reasonable to replace the Recommends: hal with Recommends: udisks. Please do note though that udisks is currently only available for Linux.
