The funny thing is that the HAL dependency bug is
among the oldest open
bug reports on the tracker, dating back almost to the fork of KDE3.5. It
is also one of the first things other desktops environments throw at us to
claim that TDE is obsolete. This is high priority for me to fix, it has
been over 3 years and in all that time no one has had the requisite
expertise to repair it.
We have already suspend/hibernate support based on upower. Now I'm trying to
replace HAL on mediamanager, using udisks2. This will take some time, because
udisks2 is pretty new and is not very well documented.
