Hi,

HAL has been deprecated and declared dead upstream so we want to
get rid of it eventually in Debian [1].

Please consider porting ivman to newer interfaces like upower, udisks or
libudev.
Given the state of the package [2] and it basically being dead upstream
(no changes since 4 years) removal might be an option and replacing it
with e.g. [3].

Regards,
Michael
