Then interested users can use this workaround:

ENV{SEQNUM}=="[0-9]*", ENV{UDEVD_EVENT}=="1", \
        RUN+="/usr/lib/hal/hal.hotplug $env{SUBSYSTEM}"

So I can make the next upload of udev conflict with hal << 0.5.6-1?


BTW, 0.5.6-1 is buggy and does not handle the manual removal of
/etc/udev/scripts/device-removable.sh, which is a conffile. You already
have in preinst the code needed, please please please use it.
