Thanks for the patch. I applied it and modified it to not start/stop hald on dapper->hardy upgrades. That works fine.
However on a testupgrade with gutsy->hardy and this package it hangs on Setting up acpid (1.0.4-5ubuntu9) ... Installing new version of config file /etc/init.d/acpid ... * Stopping Hardware abstraction layer hald ...done. * Starting Hardware abstraction layer hald strace shows that it hangs in select() (this is in a kvm VM). -- acpid install fails (because of hal running) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/63450 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
