We also don't ship hal, and were pleased to find the proper #ifdefs are
already there when patching out the dep -- they just weren't activated in
the build system. The second patch I've attached does that.

The #ifdefs are present but they are not proper. They simply avoid the need
to link libhal, but ther's no substitution for the required functionality.
At least the CD/DVD device detection and detection of automounted CDs
currently requires hal.

libzypp-6.8.2 allows to build without HAL. CD/DVD device detection is then
limited to /dev/dvd and and /dev/cdrom. Code is in media/MediaCD.cc, in case
you want to enhance it.
