** Description changed:

  wmbattery can use HAL, APM, ACPI, or even the SPIC that is in some Sony
  laptops.
  
  actually wmbattery "depend" on hal; which now should not be :  "HAL is in 
maintenance mode - no new features are added. All future development focuses on 
udisks, upower and other parts of the stack. See Software/DeviceKit for more 
information."
  http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/hal/
  
  some other packages still have hal either as "suggest" or "recommend" or 
"depend":
  - laptop-mode-tools : suggest
  - dvdrip : suggest
  - moovida-plugins-good : depend
  - dff : recommend
  - dell-recovery : multi choice (udisk/hal)
  - landscape-client: suggest
  
  Then when these packages will be not related to hal, hal should be
- removed from the archive.
+ removed from the archive. (Martin Pitt :
