[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#473755: missing conflicts: hal-device-manager

[Arthur Marsh]

Package: hal
Version: 0.5.11~rc2-1
Severity: normal


I had a USB storage device go unrecognised by hal due to the presence of 
an old installation of hal-device-manager.

Once I removed hal-device-manager and restarted the machine, the USB 
storage device was recognised.

Shouldn't the present hal have a conflicts entry with 
hal-device-manager?
