| Summary: Developer package for HAL | |
HAL is a hardware abstraction layer and aims to provide a live list of
devices present in the system at any point in time. HAL tries to
understand both physical devices (such as PCI, USB) and the device
classes (such as input, net and block) physical devices have, and it
allows merging of information from so called device info files specific
to a device.
HAL provides a network API through D-BUS for querying devices and
notifying when things change. Finally, HAL provides some monitoring (in
an unintrusive way) of devices, presently ethernet link detection and
volume mounts are monitored.
This, and more, is all described in the HAL specification

of an optical media. It fails on some drives with broken
firmware. (Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org>)
- added patches:
- hal-fix-invalid_utf8_serial.diff: Fix for bug #133664 to
prevent sending invalid UTF8 strings from storage serials
to D-BUS which prevent adding the whole storage divice to the
device store.

for the hal-device-manager (bug #133665)

bug #121913 to fix possible segfault if the callout of a
non-existing addon from key info.addons fails.

* Fix up a bug where the script for a method call returns
garbage and we pass that to dbus_message_new_error which then
fails.

property, since the underlying portno sysfs attribute is
decimal, not binary. Patch from Cornelia Huck
