Just as a note to all, R14.0.0 on Linux does not require HAL. If you still have HAL installed after the upgrade, this could indicate that something went wrong. Cheers

On wheezy, too? "dpkg -l|grep hal" says:
ii hal 0.5.14-8 amd64 Hardware Abstraction Layer ii hal-info 20091130-1 all Hardware Abstraction Layer - fdi ii hal-trinity 4:0-0debian2 all Trinity HAL metapackage ii libhal-storage 0.5.14-8 amd64 Hardware Abstraction Layer - shar ii libhal1 0.5.14-8 amd64 Hardware Abstraction Layer -
same here.

Yes, on Wheezy too. R14.0.0 in Linux relies on tdehwlib and does not required HAL. I just completed an upgrade in Wheezy from 3.5.13.2 to R14.0.0 and no HAL is not installed. There were a few left-over configuration files as in:
~# dpkg -l |grep hal | Status=Not/Inst/Conf-files/Unpacked/halF-conf/Half-inst/trig-aWait/Trig-pend rc hal 0.5.14-8 amd64 Hardware Abstraction Layer rc libhal-storage1 0.5.14-8 amd64 Hardware Abstraction Layer - shared library for storage devices rc libhal1 0.5.14-8 amd64 Hardware Abstraction Layer - shared library
but a simple clean up with aptitude got rid of it. You should be able to get rid of HAL without major problems, unless you are using other programs that specifically require it.
Cheers Michele
