Yes, but it *was* running, since it was *only* an update from hal and not of dbus. On Sa, 08 Aug 2009, Michael Biebl wrote: > Sorry, but whining about this in a "hal" bug report doesn't really help.

BTW, code point: downgrading all hal packages to the previous version suddenly made everything work again fine. The question is now how to debug that, unfortunately the fact that the hal massacre created an error on my filesystem made me think about trice before reinstallation of that buggy version that started the problem.
