Well, maybe it was a good idea to push udev to testing so that good ppl like you can start investigating the issue :) For the record : http://www.archlinux.org/pipermail/arch-dev-public/2008-August/007814.html The gitweb link I gave there does not seem to work anymore, but you can see the corresponding ML post instead : http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/hal/2008-August/012177.htmlI thought hal <-> udev communication was broken because of the missing udevinfo symlink, but reintroducing it did not help. So there might be other problems.
The patch you linked in that post suggests that you have to use "udevadm info" instead of "udevinfo". Maybe in earlier versions of udev, udevadm checked the value of argv[0] and now doesn't any more, thus a symlink will not suffice.
Can you try adding a script called udevinfo with the contents: #!/bin/sh exec /sbin/udevadm info $*and see if it solves your problems? If yes, we can simply apply the patch http://gitweb.freedesktop.org/?p=hal.git;a=commitdiff;h=f6af40c1e7ea54e69eb2d259d91dd212065d5f6e;hp=5a096af91fe349a8e2206bb16d1ffc8436fe402b to hal.
