* Add 03_increase_helper_timeout.patch: Increase helper timeout from 10 to

  seconds. (LP: #218834)

* debian/hal.postinst: If hal has any start rc symlinks, force them back to
  24. A lot of people end up with priority 12 for some reason, which races
  with dbus startup, especially with CONCURRENCY=shell. (LP: #25931)

02_input_spin_removed_fd.patch: add upstream ref

released as 0.5.11~rc2-1ubuntu7 to hardy

227. By Martin Pitt on 2008-04-21

* Add 02_input_spin_removed_fd.patch:
  - Avoid spinning on already invalidated/closed file descriptors in the
    input addon. This fixes "hal takes 100% CPU and breaks input device
    handling" on a lot of machines. (LP: #203679)
  - Thanks to Jon Oberheide for the patch!
