hal was pulled by: - sugar: dropped the dep, since sugar is using gio/gvfs - usb-imagewriter: added a patch from Ubuntu to use udisks instead (no udisks2 yet...) - draksnapshot: fixed a crash when hal was not running (#3032) and opened a reminder bug about migration to udisks2 (#7565) > - obsolete policykit, replaced by polkit policykit has been replaced by polkit quite some time ago. We still had a few users: - python-slip (pulled by sectool, which is used by msec): only a requires had to be fixed - hal: taken care of above So, both hal and policykit are now obsoleted by task-obsolete. I guess policykit could be made obsolete by the polkit package instead, but hal has no real full replacement, so the obsolete tag can belong to task-obsolete. Should we explicitely obsolete the library packages as well or should we let them be handled by the orphans feature of urpme? Next step will be udisksectomy! (udisks1) -- Olivier Blin - blino
