* debian/patches/65-glib-single-include.patch: Starting with glib 2.32 it is
  now mandatory to include <glib.h> instead of individual headers.
  (Closes: #665556)
* Test for /var/cache/hald and /var/run/hald before trying to remove them on
  purge. This avoids a harmless warning message. (Closes: #638675)
* Bump Standards-Version to 3.9.3.
* Add Breaks against xserver-xorg (<< 1:7.6+8), to ensure we have a version of
  xserver-xorg which no longer uses "invoke-rc.d hal restart" in postinst,
  since the init script is gone. (Closes: #624398)

* debian/control
  - Drop Suggests: gnome-device-manager, this package no longer is in the
    archive.
* debian/patches/60-create-run-hald-directory.patch
  - Create /var/run/hald/ when starting hald. This directory contains
    runtime data like pid files and sockets and needs to be created
    dynamically as (/var)/run resides on a tmpfs. (Closes: #632900)

[ Martin Pitt ]
* Add 00upstream_video4linux_check.patch: Do not build
  hald-probe-video4linux if v4l1 is not available. (LP: #721399)
* Refresh 99-autoreconf.patch for above.
* 45-fix-libusb-detection.patch: Unfuzz.

[ Michael Biebl ]
* debian/patches/00_disable_v4l1_probing.patch
  - The hald-probe-video4linux prober supports both v4l1 and v4l2. Support
    for v4l1 has been removed from Linux kernel 2.6.38. Instead of
    disabling the prober altogether, #ifdef the v4l1 parts when building on a
    newer kernel. This partially reverts 00upstream_video4linux_check.patch.
    (Closes: #621973)
* Refresh all patches to apply cleanly.
* Use dh-autoreconf to update the build system
  - Drop debian/patches/99-autoreconf.patch
  - Add Build-Depends on dh-autoreconf.
  - Include /usr/share/cdbs/1/rules/autoreconf.mk in debian/rules.
* Bump Standards-Version to 3.9.2. No further changes.

* Merge with Debian unstable; remaining Ubuntu changes:
 - Add support for smartdimmer backlight control for GeForce 7/8/9 based
   Sony laptops.
   + Add 04_nvidia_brightness.patch.
   + Add smartdimmer recommends.
 - debian/hal.postinst: Do not create plugdev and powerdev groups.
 - Change startup from init/upstart to D-Bus activation. This allows us
   having installed programs which still need hal without the need to start
   hal on boot:
   + Remove debian/hal.{init,default}.
   + Add D-Bus activation service file debian/org.freedesktop.Hal.service and
     install it in debian/hal.install.
   + debian/hal.postinst: When triggering an .fdi file update, just stop
     hald; it will be reactivated when needed.
 - Add 02_libhal_dont_check_running.patch, 00git_bigger_path_size.patch, see
   their patch headers.

170. By Martin Pitt on 2010-05-09

* Add 02_libhal_dont_check_running.patch: In libhal_ctx_init(), do not check
  if hal is already running, since it will get D-Bus activated. Thanks to
  Lionel Le Folgoc for the patch! (LP: #546992)
* Add 00git_bigger_path_size.patch: Bump HAL_PATH_MAX to 4096. Patch taken
  from upstream git head. (LP: #525245)

169. By Martin Pitt on 2010-04-01

Revert the previous change. We do not want any user to modify internal
system partitions without any authentication, it creates too much of a
security hole. Instead, the patch in kdelibs should be fixed, after all it
worked fine in karmic and earlier. (LP: #528907)

168. By Alessandro Ghersi on 2010-03-30

* Disable 10_nonpolkit-mount-policy.patch (LP: #528907)
  - We want allow users (and not only root) to mount storage devices
