Bug#383930: /etc/dbus-1/system.d/hal.conf not updated to the new haldaemon username

Sun, 20 Aug 2006 12:33:47 -0700 

Package: hal
Version: 0.5.7.1-1

hal fails to load because dbus does not grant it the permission to own 
org.freedesktop.Hal. I think this is due to the lack of the following lines 
in /etc/dbus-1/system.d/hal.conf, as now hal runs as user haldaemon and not 
hal:

  <policy user="haldaemon">
    <allow own="org.freedesktop.Hal"/>
  </policy>

I also think it is safe to remove the lines referring to the user hal since it 
should not be of any use anymore (however it is still present in 
my /etc/passwd... another little bug?)

BTW I'm using debian unstable.
