dbus startup failed

[Rick Pasotto <rick@niof.net>]

TOday I upgraded 'hal' and 'gnome-volume-manager' which replaced dbus-1
with 'dbus' but then the startup failed with this message:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Starting system message bus: dbus.
Starting Hardware abstraction layer: /usr/sbin/hald: unrecognized option `--drop-privileges'

usage : hald [--daemon=yes|no] [--verbose=yes|no] [--help]

        --daemon=yes|no      Become a daemon
        --verbose=yes|no     Print out debug (overrides HALD_VERBOSE)
        --use-syslog         Print out debug messages to syslog instead of stderr.
                             Use this option to get debug messages if HAL runs as
                             daemon.
        --help               Show this information and exit
        --version            Output version information and exit
The HAL daemon detects devices present in the system and provides the
org.freedesktop.Hal service through the system-wide message bus provided
by D-BUS.

For more information visit http://freedesktop.org/Software/hal

run-parts: /etc/dbus-1/event.d/20hal exited with return code 1
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

How do I fix this?
