Bug Description

Binary package hint: hal

hal now starts at S24, thus much later than S13gdm. This is the reason why sometimes the gnome session doesn't have a running hal yet, especially on the live CD. We need to migrate hal's priority to "12.5" (in between S12dbus and S13gdm).

hal (0.5.9.1-1ubuntu2) gutsy; urgency=low

  * debian/rules:
    - Start hal init script at priority 12 instead of 24, so that it starts
      right after dbus, and before gdm. This fixes the race condition of
      gnome-session sometimes not having hal ready. (LP: #127913)
    - Do not stop hal in levels 0 and 6, it's not necessary (multiuser-like
      change).
  * debian/hal.preinst: Fix rc symlink priority on upgrades. Since Feisty did
    not yet have its own rc symlinks, this only needs to be kept for
    intra-gutsy updates and thus should disappear around the beta release.
