When are we planning to remove HAL from the distribution? Apparently other distributions are already working on this for their next releases, and if we are planning the same, I'd like to know about it well in advance so the implications for applications using HAL are clear.
Are there any openSUSE specific packages that use hal? For example does YaST or our installation depend on hal? In that case we should evaluate moving these packages away from hal ourselves - and I agree that for those

where we're not upstream and which do not change in time for the 11.3 release, we'll ship hal to have them working,
YaST uses hal to temporarily switch automounting off.
At least GNOME does not use HAL anymore to handle auto-mounting, so this needs fixing anyway, I guess. And hwinfo still uses HAL, as far as I know. Thanks, Kay -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
