[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#469528: fails when upgrading (Connection refused)

[Pablo López Martín]

Package: hal
Version: 0.5.13-6
Severity: normal

I have the same problem when I dist-upgrade from lenny to squeeze on an 
amd64 architecture. Because it's a dist-upgrade all the packages from 
the xorg suite fail since xorg-core depends on hal, and dpkg exits since 
it finds too many errors to process. So the dist-upgrade can't be 
complete. 

Is anyone looking into this actively? Thanks in advance.
