Change logs for hal source package in Dapper

  • hal (0.5.7-1ubuntu18.3) dapper-proposed; urgency=low
    
      * debian/10-storage-policy.fdi: Do not launch a second hald-addon-storage
        for all polled devices (like CD-ROMs). 20-storage-methods.fdi already does
        that, and having two processes polling the CD-ROM causes problems after
        resuming from suspend/hibernate. (LP: #58935)

  • hal (0.5.7-1ubuntu18.2) dapper-updates; urgency=low
    
      * No-change upload of 0.5.7-1ubuntu18.1 to dapper-updates.
      * Thanks to Simon Law and Oliver Grawert for testing!

  • hal (0.5.7-1ubuntu18.1) dapper-proposed; urgency=low
    
      * Add 16-nonpartitions-ending-in-nums.patch:
        - Hal currently assumes that device names ending in numbers are
          partitions. This patch adds a safe and easy, but slightly ugly
          workaround. (Real fix will be discussed with upstream at
          https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5558)
        - This breaks SCSI, USB, and Firewire CD drives, which are usually called
          'scd0', 'sr1', etc.
        - Closes: LP#56484 and an impressive number of duplicates.

  • hal (0.5.7-1ubuntu18) dapper; urgency=low
    
      * adding zzz_add_hwdb_button.patch and make the hwdb button in
        hal-device-manager reappear
      * add hwdb-client to hal-device-manager deps
      * fix hdm-python2.4.patch to work cleanly with pittis cdbstpatch script

  • hal (0.5.7-1ubuntu17) dapper; urgency=low
    
      * Fix my cdbs incompetence
    
     -- Matthew Garrett <email address hidden>   Tue, 16 May 2006 17:52:50 +0100
  • hal (0.5.7-1ubuntu16) dapper; urgency=low
    
      * Omnibook brightness control should have 11 levels (Closes: LP#44962)
    
     -- Matthew Garrett <email address hidden>   Tue, 16 May 2006 12:39:44 +0100
  • hal (0.5.7-1ubuntu15) dapper; urgency=low
    
      * Fix name of 14_prove_volume_invalidlabel.patch -> s/prove/probe/.
      * Disable debian/patches/13_probe_input_endianess.patch for now; it is
        incorrect (the ioctl expects chars, not long) and causes crashes.
        Closes: LP#43962 (and half a dozen dups)
    
     -- Martin Pitt <email address hidden>   Wed, 10 May 2006 18:33:34 +0200
  • hal (0.5.7-1ubuntu14) dapper; urgency=low
    
      * Add debian/patches/14_prove_volume_invalidlabel.patch:
        - Do not try to fix device labels with invalid UTF-8 characters if more
          than 20% of the characters are invalid. This avoids totally
          unintelligible labels while still preserving only mildly damaged ones.
        - Closes: LP#27897
    
     -- Martin Pitt <email address hidden>   Wed, 10 May 2006 18:21:02 +0200
  • hal (0.5.7-1ubuntu13) dapper; urgency=low
    
      * Add debian/patches/13_probe_input_endianess.patch:
        - Fix bit testing in probe-input to work on big endian, too.
        - Patch taken from upstream CVS.

  • hal (0.5.7-1ubuntu12) dapper; urgency=low
    
      * debian/patches/12_refresh_acpi_states.patch:
        backport from CVS, refresh ACPI events after suspend/hibernate.
        Half of the fix for [Malone: #33072]
    
     -- Paul Sladen <email address hidden>   Mon, 01 May 2006 16:00:05 +0100
  • hal (0.5.7-1ubuntu11) dapper; urgency=low
    
      * debian/patches/is_mounted_read_only_property.patch:
        - backport from CVS for the new "is_mounted_read_only_property" property,
          required by gnomevfs,nautilus to fix datas copied from CD being readonly
          (http://mail.gnome.org/archives/nautilus-list/2006-March/msg00045.html)
          (Ubuntu: #21576)
    
     -- Sebastien Bacher <email address hidden>   Fri, 21 Apr 2006 00:00:16 +0200
  • hal (0.5.7-1ubuntu10) dapper; urgency=low
    
      * Disable debian/patches/01_probe_parttable.patch, it causes regressions
        (like CD-ROMs detected as fsusage='partitiontable'). This reopens bug
        #19390, but that one is much less evil.
      * debian/hal-device-manager.desktop:
        - Add X-Ubuntu-Gettext-Domain.
        - Update the German translation to match the changed C one from
          0.5.7-1ubuntu7.
      * Add debian/hal-device-manager.desktop.in: Reduced h-d-m desktop file with
        just _Name and _Comment to add these msgids to the POT.
      * Add debian/patches/desktop-POTFILES.patch: Add debian/h-d-m.desktop.in to
        POTFILES.in.
      * Add debian/patches/11-hdm-nice-keyvalues.patch:
        - Beautify the display of list values: do not show a Python unicode prefix
          (u'foo') and Python list notation ([...]).
        - Closes: LP#35935
      * Rename system user 'hal' to 'haldaemon' to be compatible with upstream
        default (and the documentation in the web) and to avoid name conflicts
        with user accounts for people whose name is 'Hal'.
        - debian/rules: Drop --with-hal-{user,group}
        - debian/hal.postinst, debian/hal.init.dbus: Change user name accordingly.
        - Closes: LP#11957
      * debian/hal.default: Remove the comments about hal running as user/root,
        since this cannot be changed any more.
    
     -- Martin Pitt <email address hidden>   Mon, 27 Mar 2006 18:08:12 +0200
  • hal (0.5.7-1ubuntu9) dapper; urgency=low
    
      * debian/patches/10_volume_and_aliased_keys.patch (addon-keyboard):
        - Add macro, volume* and mute keys (special codes <128)
        - Add in 'aliased-keys' mirrored onto F19..F23
        - Add battery key at value 236, (waiting for upstream), [Malone: #22451]
    
     -- Paul Sladen <email address hidden>   Mon, 27 Mar 2006 16:06:51 +0100
  • hal (0.5.7-1ubuntu8) dapper; urgency=low
    
      * debian/patches/02_ignored_volumes.patch:
        - Only show mounted volumes in /media (not in /mnt any more), and do not
          show all VFAT/NTFS mounts. (See discussion in bug #34886)
    
     -- Martin Pitt <email address hidden>   Mon, 20 Mar 2006 11:46:44 +0100
  • hal (0.5.7-1ubuntu7) dapper; urgency=low
    
      * debian/hal-device-manager.desktop:
        - use "View hardware information" instead of "HAL Device Manager"
          as menu item tooltip
    
     -- Sebastien Bacher <email address hidden>   Thu, 16 Mar 2006 14:16:22 +0100
  • hal (0.5.7-1ubuntu6) dapper; urgency=low
    
      * Add debian/patches/02_ignored_volumes.patch:
        - Add a policy for which volumes are shown in gnome-vfs and which aren't.
          This replaces the gconf based policy in gnome-vfs2, which was ripped out
          two seconds before the final Gnome relase (*cough* freezes?).
        - Now ignore volumes on non-hottpluggable and non-removable volumes unless
          they are mounted under /mnt or /media, or are a mounted NTFS or VFAT
          partition. This should come close to what the majority of users will
          want to see.
        - Malone #34886 (might also fix at leastparts of #13554)
      * Add debian/patches/09_sony_brightness.patch:
        - Apply trivial upstream patch to fix LCD brightness setting on Sony
          laptops.
        - Patch taken from upstream CVS, thanks to Paolo Borelli.
        - Malone #31289
    
     -- Martin Pitt <email address hidden>   Wed, 15 Mar 2006 23:07:11 +0100
  • hal (0.5.7-1ubuntu5) dapper; urgency=low
    
      * debian/10-storage-policy.fdi: Restore most of the settings from hal 0.5.6,
        since they are still necessary as long as we don't use gnome-mount:
        - Ensures proper mount point for iPods. (Malone #33120)
        - Mounts volumes with 'exec' again. (Malone #33621)
    
     -- Martin Pitt <email address hidden>   Thu,  9 Mar 2006 12:44:30 +0100
  • hal (0.5.7-1ubuntu4) dapper; urgency=low
    
      * Add debian/patches/01_probe_parttable.patch:
        volume_id/volume_id.c, volume_id_probe_all():
        - Add probing for MS-DOS partition table before probing for file systems.
          All calls to this function expect that this function may return a
          partition table.
        - This also avoids mounting the raw device as a volume when there is
          actually a partition on it. (Malone #19390)
      * Remove debian/README.Debian, it's obsolete.
    
     -- Martin Pitt <email address hidden>   Wed,  8 Mar 2006 11:23:50 +0100
  • hal (0.5.7-1ubuntu3) dapper; urgency=low
    
      * Add debian/10-storage-policy.fdi and ship it in
        /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/, I did not notice that this was
        dropped in Debian. Reinstates 'eject removable devices' policy.
    
     -- Martin Pitt <email address hidden>   Fri,  3 Mar 2006 15:44:45 +0100
  • hal (0.5.7-1ubuntu2) dapper; urgency=low
    
      * debian/patches/05_pmu_nohibernate.patch: Fix crash if
        power_management.type does not exist. This happens on e. g. ppc64, which
        have SMU, not PMU. Thanks to Alastair Poole for debugging this with me.
    
     -- Martin Pitt <email address hidden>   Wed,  1 Mar 2006 11:58:34 +0100
  • hal (0.5.7-1ubuntu1) dapper; urgency=low
    
      * New upstream version with mainly bug fixes and cleanup, UVF exception
        approved by Matt.
      * Synchronize to Debian.
      * Remove patches which are now upstream:
        - 06_dbus-query-capability.patch
        - 07_add-keyboard-addons.patch
        - 09_privileges-hald.patch
      * debian/patches/08_privileges-addons.patch: The bulk of the patch went
        upstream. The only change left is the derooting of addon-storage, which is
        not appropriate for upstream.
    
    hal (0.5.7-1) experimental; urgency=low
    
      * New upstream release
      * debian/patches/02_hal_addon_pmu.patch

      * Sync with Ubuntu
        + Remove unneeded build-depends (libsysfs-dev and libcap-dev)
        + force-reload dbus instead of reload
        + Remove obsolete fdi example conffile
        + Add small utility script to run hald from the debian dir.
      * debian/patches/storage-policy-debian.patch
        + Removed. Obsolete
      * debian/patches/03_hald_runnerpath.patch
        + Added. Give programs run by the runner a save PATH
      * debian/patches/04_hald_scripts.patch
        + Added. Fix various bugs in the hal scripts
      * Add the powerdev group in postinst
      * debian/patches/01_hal_debian_dbuspolicy.patch
        + Added. Change the hal dbus policy to allow user part of the powerdev
        group to use the org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.SystemPowerManagement and
        org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.LaptopPanel interfaces.

      * debian/rules: Use gnome.mk to get gettext domain in .desktop file.

  • hal (0.5.6-4ubuntu3) dapper; urgency=low
    
      * debian/run-hald.sh: Specify absolute paths in HALD_RUNNER_PATH to make
        the runner find the callouts in the source tree.
      * debian/patches/08_privileges-addons.patch: Completely rework patch.
        - hald/linux2/probing/shared.h: Factor out drop_privileges() into this
          header file and add 'keep_auxgroups' parameter.
        - hald/linux2/addons/addon-storage.c: Drop privileges with keeping
          auxiliary groups right at the start; since the helper repeatedly opens
          the device file for good reasons, we cannot keep an opened fd around.
        - hald/linux2/addons/addon-acpi.c:
          + If /proc ACPI interface is disabled, drop privileges right away (since
            everybody can read from acpid).
          + Otherwise, drop privileges right after opening the kernel's ACPI
            interface. Move this part out of the reconnect loop since after
            dropping privs we cannot reconnect (and the kernel interface shouldn't
            disappear anyway).
        - hald/linux2/addons/addon-pmu.c: Drop all privileges after opening
          /dev/adb.
      * debian/patches/07_add-keyboard-addons.patch: Remove drop_privileges()
        since it's already in shared.h.
      * debian/hal.init.dbus: Remove the extra pid check/kill, start-stop-daemon
        should be sufficient to stop hal nowadays.
      * Revert changes from previous upload; discussion revealed that hal should
        deliberately ignore settings in /etc/default/acpi-support, so we don't
        need the PMI querying.

        versus hibernate.
        This will need revisiting later to be implemented more neatly

  • hal (0.5.6-4ubuntu1) dapper; urgency=low
    
      * Synchronize to Debian to get bug fixes.
        - Fix ZIP drive deadlock. (Malone #29822)
      * Remove debian/patches/z_autoconf.patch: Not necessary any more, Debian's
        01_hal_privsep.patch already contains autoconf changes.
      * Cleaned up names of ubuntu patches.
      * Adapt ubuntu specific patches to apply again.
    
    hal (0.5.6-4) unstable; urgency=high
    
      * debian/patches/05_hald_clear_udev_buffer.patch
        + Added. Clear the buffer where udev events are received before using
        (from hal CVS)
    
    hal (0.5.6-3) unstable; urgency=high
    
      * debian/patches/01_hal_privsep.patch

    hal (0.5.6-2) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * debian/patches/01_hal_privsep.patch
        + Updated to current CVS version
      * udev communicated events to hal via a socket now, which as a side-effect
        fixes incompatibility with udev 0.83 (Closes: #350639, #350762)
      * Let hal look in the right location for the pci.ids and usb.ids files
        (Closes: #341824)
      * Because the addons run with root privs. now, harddisk properties are
        available (Closes: #290653)
      * debian/patches/03_storage_sigio.patch
        + Added. Switch EjectButton detection to SG_IO interface. Solves some
        problems with scsi cdrom drives (from hal CVS)
      * debian/patches/04_hald-no-patch.patch
        + Added. Also start correctly when PATH is not set (Closes: #345391)
