Bug#694021: Incorrect LSB header, Should-Start contains obsolete hal

[Michael Biebl <biebl@debian.org>]

Package: kdm
Version: 4:4.8.4-4
Severity: normal
User: pkg-utopia-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: halectomy

Hi,

HAL has been deprecated and declared dead upstream so we want to
get rid of it in Debian [1].

The kdm sysv init script contains in its LSB header

# Should-Start:      console-screen kbd acpid dbus hal krb5-kdc

Afaics kdm does not actually need or use hal so this dependency should
be dropped. Besides, hal is started via D-Bus activation since nowadays
making this dependency obsolete.

Cheers,
Michael
