Changelog

hal (0.5.10-5ubuntu1) hardy; urgency=low

  * Merge with Debian unstable. See 0.5.10-1ubuntu1 for remaining changes.
  * debian/rules: Configure with --enable-acl-management, and add dependency
    to 'acl'. (See hardy-hardware-detection spec.)
  * Stop using the 'plugdev' and 'powerdev' system groups:
    - Drop debian/patches/01_hal_debian_dbuspolicy.patch.
    - debian/hal.postinst: Do not create these groups any more.
    - debian/README.Debian: Adapt text about volume and power management
      (users must be on a local console instead of in these groups).

hal (0.5.10-5) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Michael Biebl ]
  * debian/hal.postinst
    - Remove superfluous getent calls. adduser is clever enough to omit
      creating accounts if they already exist.
    - Don't ignore addgroup errors.
    - Set the home directory of the haldaemon user to /var/run/hal.
  * debian/hal.dirs
    - Make sure the directory /var/run/hal is created.
  * debian/hal.postrm
    - As /var/run/hal is managed by dpkg now, there is no need anymore to
      clean up this directory manually.
  * debian/control
    - The Vcs-* fields are now officially supported, so remove the XS- prefix.
    - Change maintainer address to
      <email address hidden>.
    - Add sjoerd, slomo and myself to Uploaders.
    - Bump Standards-Version to 3.7.3. No further changes required.

  [ Sjoerd Simons ]
  * debian/patches/86_fix_killswitch_callout.patch:
    - Added. Fixes errors from the killswitch callouts on non-dell machines
      (Closes: #453203)
  * debian/control: Don't build-depend on libusb-dev on hurd-i386
  * debian/patches/87_fix_hurd_compilation.patch:
    - Added. Fix compilation on the Hurd. Based on a patch by Samuel Thibault
      (Closes: #444574)
  * debian/patches/90_fix_crash_after_fdi_cache_generation.patch:
    - Added. Fix a hal crash when the fdi cache is regenerated while
    hal is running (From upstream git).
  * debian/patches/91_fix_invalid_fdi_cache_on_empty_matches.patch:
    - Added. Fix a bug causing the fdi cache to be invalid when an fdi files
    contains empty match rules. (Closes: #456310)
  * debian/hal.postinst
     - Ignore errors from addgroup. These aren't fatal and can occur when
       trying to add groups are added on installation (thus aren't system
       groups).
     - Add --quiet to the adduser invocation. We're not interested in adduser
       noting that user haldaemon already exists
  * debian/patches/88_fix_hurd_compilation2.patchx
    - Added. Some more patched to fix compilation on the Hurd. Thanks to
      Samuel Thibault
  * debian/patches/89_hurd_compile_autofoo.patch
    - Added. Regenerate tools/Makefile.in to include the changes needed for
      hurd support.
  * debian/hal.install
    - Include everything in /usr/bin as the hal package is now the only thing
      to have things from /usr/bin. Prevents issues on arch that don't build
      all binaries (like the Hurd). Thanks to Samuel Thibault
