Hi Martin, the HAL scanner code doesn't correctly initialize the HAL context it uses. This causes the libchipcard HAL scanner to not fail if the HAL daemon isn't running. This in turn causes ugly error messages like those reported in the following two bug reports:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=532893 https://bugs.launchpad.net/debian/+source/libchipcard/+bug/429853 The attached patch fixes this issue and enables libchipcard's HAL scanner to correctly detect whether HAL is running or not.
