Package: wdm Version: 1.28-13 Severity: normal User: [email protected] Usertags: halectomy
Hi, HAL has been deprecated and declared dead upstream so we want to get rid of it in Debian [1]. The wdm sysv init script contains in its LSB header # Should-Start: xfs $named slapd console-screen kbd acpid dbus hal network-manager # Should-Stop: xfs $named slapd console-screen kbd acpid dbus hal network-manager Afaics wdm does not actually need or use hal so this dependency should be dropped. Besides, hal is started via D-Bus activation nowadays making this dependency obsolete.
