Package: hal
Version: 0.2.95-5
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

As you problably noted yourself, there's a new upstream version
available. I was hacking on the Debian package, so I thought I might
just as well submit the patches it took me to update to 0.2.97. I'm not
sure whether you want to keep the remaining parts of the linux-hotplug-cleanup.patch around.

Do with this patch whatever you want, it is purely informational.

BTW, does this

(main): Use flock(2) to lock the /etc/fstab file. Also bail out
when there are no info.capabilities and we were invoked by hald.
Store PID in the global variable pid.

change to fstab-sync.c in 0.2.97 address your concerns from http://freedesktop.org/pipermail/hal/2004-July/000624.html ?


cheers,

Michael

Martin is on holiday right now, so i'm currently babysitting the package. I
was originally planning to package hal 0.2.9{6,7} last weekend, so it could potentially go into testing. Unfortunatly david changed more then i expected in 0.2.96 -> 0.2.97, so 0.2.95 will the the hal package in sarge.

Having said this, i guess we should concentrate on that version for now. So i'll wait some time with putting hal >= 0.2.97 in debian. I'm still planning to get the firewire bug fixed for sarge, but time is slowly running out. If you have a firewire drive and willing to hack on the current debian package, please check it out :)

Ah, ok. Did you try out the new C-based fstab-sync? According to the announcement, a wrapper is not needed anymore, yet my USB stick fails to
get added to /etc/fstab. I've always had problems with that piece of
hardware though.

I'd like to have one, but unfortunately, I do not have one yet :-/


cheers,
