[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#562068: hald-probe-input segfaults on hal restart

[Willi Mann]

Package: hal
Version: 0.5.14-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

When /etc/init.d/hal restart is executed - it happened first to me on today's
upgrade - I get the following backtrace (signal 6, aborted):


#0  0xb76f2424 in __kernel_vsyscall ()

Note that the SEGFAULT is not reproduceable in every hal restart.
