hal is a dependency because it is now technically necessary for the
automatic configuration of input devices.
Yes, it is possible to manually configure a system to run without hal,
and in a small proportion of cases it will run with defaults. However,
to work automatically across all people's devices, hal is required.
** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Won't Fix
