Why are you still interested in hal? It's been deprecated ages ago, and
any modern software apps (should) use more robust alternatives such as

I disagree, because /etc/hal should contain configuration files (which
can be found in /usr/share/hal), not only required directories.

Hal scans both /usr/share/hal and /etc/hal. But if the right
directories in /etc/hal don't exist it errors out. Adding the symlink
