I wish I could figure
out what dependency wanted HAL to be installed so I could remove it.
I would assume that the HAL dependency may be required by
some deeper-inside Gnome part that is used by Gimp, maybe
a part of the Gtk+ library... I'm not sure it's trivial to
find out which one it is.
--As for the rest, it is mine.
Sure it is:
cd /usr/ports/sysutils/hal
make deinstall
It will list what ports require it. ;)
pkg_info -R hal\* will show the same list without actually deinstalling
it.
But some or most of those don't directly depend on hal, they depend on
something else that depends on hal. It would be nice to easily find the
root few. xorg-server can be set to not use hal. Then rebuild the
keyboard, mouse, and video drivers.
One problem with getting rid of hal entirely is libgnomeui, which
depends on gvfs, which depends on gnome-mount, which depends on hal.
