These *need* to be split into separate SRPMS. I don't mind
co-maintaining these if you want, but if we are updating machine quirks
once a month or so, then we should be able to update one 100k no-arch
package, rather than 4 or 5 multi-megabyte architecture specific
packages.
Sorry to harp on about this, but F7T3 is getting closer.
One, this bug is not a feature and that's why I've been punting it since
I'd rather spend my time getting features done before feature freeze.
Second, the hal and hal-info tarballs needed fixing
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/hal/2007-March/007799.html
to actually sanely do this. Third, I'd be happy to see you co-maintain
the hal-info package and I think I even suggested you should submit the
hal-info SRPM for Fedora Extras. If it's in Extras already, it's simpler
to do the switch once the merge is complete. HAL will need a rebuild
_anyway_ to take advantage of libsmbios for backlight and rfkill on Dell
laptops.
