Hi,

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

The wdm sysv init script contains in its LSB header

# Should-Start:      xfs $named slapd console-screen kbd acpid dbus hal 
network-manager
# Should-Stop:       xfs $named slapd console-screen kbd acpid dbus hal 
network-manager

Afaics wdm does not actually need or use hal so this dependency should
be dropped. Besides, hal is started via D-Bus activation nowadays
making this dependency obsolete.

Cheers,
Michael
