Package: hal
Version: 0.5.11-8
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

Hi,

in order to set the X keymap correctly in the future it looks like we'll
need the following patch in hal to make hal-set-property call
libhal_ctx_init_direct.  Fedora and Ubuntu already use this, I don't
know the status wrt upstream.  (this patch stolen from rawhide)

Cheers,
Julien
