Bug#427332: hal: fails to upgrade

2007-06-03 Thread Wolf Wiegand
Package: hal
Version: 0.5.9-3
Severity: normal

Starting Hardware abstraction layer: hald
invoke-rc.d: initscript hal, action start failed.
dpkg: error processing hal (--configure):
 subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 2
Errors were encountered while processing:
 hal

It takes a very long time for the error message to appear (appr. 3
minutes). I haven't noticed any problems on system startup.


Cheers, Wolf

Please run hald --daemon=no --verbose=yes and attach the output to the
bug report.

In /etc/default/dbus, I have ENABLED set to 0. After setting it to 1 and
starting dbus, hal starts alright. Maybe some sort of check for dbus not
running could be included?

I just rechecked: On system boot, this problem does not occur, I can't
tell why, though.

Cheers, Wolf
