Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.111
Severity: wishlist
Usertags: obsolete

Three packages install files in /usr/share/hal/ but this directory is
no longer looked at by any package in Debian since hal was removed in
2014 because it was replaced by udev. I will file bugs on the three
affected packages but it would be good for lintian to warn about use of
/usr/share/hal/ so that no new or updated packages add files there.

This was released in 2.5.113 but I somehow removed the changelog entry
in:

  https://salsa.debian.org/lintian/lintian/commit/136a350ae613394faf5167d3890aa4edb597c73c

Closing.
