Simply changing the build-depends from libhal-dev to libudev-dev does not
magically "port" an application from HAL to udev.

Btw, the URL debian/copyright [1] does give a 404. You should update that.

The latest version I could find is 18.5 via [2]. The spec file indicates, that
this version no longer uses hal:

* Fri May 21 2010 snwint@suse.de
- detect formfactor without hal (bnc #591703)
* Wed Mar 17 2010 snwint@suse.de
- remove hal dependency
- removed VERSION

Please consider updating the hwinfo package in Debian accordingly.

Cheers,
Michael
