Hi,
HAL has been deprecated and declared dead upstream so we want to
get rid of it eventually in Debian [1].
openct has a Recommends: hal dependency.
While looking through the changelog, this seems to have been added in
0.6.16-2:
* debian/rules, debian/control, openct.install: Use hal instead of
udev. Copy in the correct hal files and don't compile with
udev, recommend hal instead of udev. (Closes: #442300)
The current package in unstable no longer ships the hal policy file
etc/openct-policy.fdi and the corresponding hald-addon-openct callout.
Instead it seems to use udev rules (again).
So I'm wondering if it is just an oversight that the hal recommends is still
there and it should simply be removed.
Regards,
Michael
