Hi, |

|

so today, pciutils-2.2.4-r3 went stable on x86. |
| 4 |
It's a known issue, that pciutils compiled with zlib use-flag turned on |
| 5 |
(which is default) doesn't work with the version of hal, which is |
| 6 |
currently stable on x86. |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
So at the moment, hal-0.5.9-r1 is stable on x86. It went stable weeks or |
| 9 |
even months ago. Now, pciutils-2.2.4-r3 is compiled with zlib use-flag |
| 10 |
turned on. There are now warning, errors, or any other messages about |
| 11 |
the zlib use-flag - well, until you recompile hal. |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
The hal-ebuild checks, whether pciutils has been built with or without |
| 14 |
the zlib use-flag. But what is this check worth, if people have already |
| 15 |
upgraded hal weeks ago and the uncompatibility between pciutils and hal |
| 16 |
is now unnoticed? |
| 17 |
|

Why did you provocate this breakage? |

This is not a good idea, IMHO. |
