hal 0.5.13-1ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

hal (0.5.13-1ubuntu1) karmic; urgency=low

  * Merge with Debian experimental and svn head, to minimize our Delta.
    Drop MacBook and smartdimmer brightness support, since hal is being
    deprecated, and already not used for brightness changes any more.
    Remaining Ubuntu changes:
   - Enable support for X11 input hotplugging:
     + debian/rules: Do not remove 10-x11-input.fdi, we want to install it by
       default.
     + Drop 10-x11-input.fdi from debian/hal.examples, since we install
       it by default.
   - debian/rules: Disable support for keymaps, now done by udev.
   - debian/rules: Disable support for ACL management, now done by udev. Drop
     "acl" dependency.

hal (0.5.13-2) UNRELEASED; urgency=low

  [ Martin Pitt ]
  * debian/control: Drop libsmbios-dev from build depends.  Kernel 2.6.30
    provides dell_laptop kernel module which exports these interfaces into
    standard "generic" ones. Drop recommends for libsmbios-bin.
  * debian/control: Bump libblkid-dev build dep to >= 2.15  as done by
    upstream recently; 1.43 was a synthetic version number before the
    util-linux release number was determined.
  * debian/hal.init: Check for /sys/devices, not /sys/kernel. The latter
    doesn't exist in OpenVZ. (LP: #399629)

hal (0.5.13-1) experimental; urgency=low

  * New upstream release.
    - Fix crash when assembling certain MD devices. (Closes: #522136)
    - Fixes for GNU/kFreeBSD.
    - Set default udev_prefix to ${exec_prefix}/lib in configure.in.
    - Define new (sub-)namespace(s) and policy for smart card readers.
    - Ignore ADD events if there is already a device with same sysfs_path.
    - probe-volume: remove needless check for empty fstype.
    - Use $libexecdir not $libdir/hal to define private hal directory.
    - Various startup speedups.
    - Add hal-set-property --direct.
    - addon-acpi.c: Support acpid.
    - 10-x11-input.fdi: Add tablets.
    - Add input.keys capability to input buttons.
    - Add support for devices on the SSB and ibme bus.
  * debian/patches/11-direct-hal-set-propery.patch
    - Removed, merged upstream.
  * debian/patches/23_addon_acpi.patch
    - Removed, merged upstream.
  * Add support for GNU/kFreeBSD. (Closes: #528383)
    Thanks to Aurelien Jarno and Cyril Brulebois for the patch(es).
  * debian/control
    - Change Build-Depends from libvolume-id-dev to libblkid-dev (>= 1.43).
    - Bump Standards-Version to 3.8.2. No further changes.
    - Wrap hal dependencies.
    - Demote pm-utils to Recommends now that pm-utils is in the laptop and
      desktop task and Recommends are installed by default. (Closes: #477913)
  * debian/hal.init
    - Refactor safety checks into a separate function and make sure they are
      also run on restart. (Closes: #537251)
    - Use s-s-d's --retry option on stop which allows us to safely remove the
      ugly "sleep 1" between start and stop within restart.
  * debian/patches/20_cpufreq_warning_message_fix.patch
    - Fix a misleading warning message in ondemand_set_consider_nice().
      (Closes: #532999)
