Description Brian Nisonger 2008-09-04 18:48:05 UTC
The comments on the build of hal-0.5.11-r1 (maybe earlier and I just didnt notice) tell you to go ahead and delete the keyboard and mouse configuration from Xorg, but hal-0.5.11-r2 still looks for them there.  Can you either put in a use flag or other kind of if statement to check if this has already been done so it is not repeating the same actions that now have become redundant.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Remove input configuration from Xorg.conf
2. Try to compile hal.
3.Realize this is not going to work
4.Doesnt work

Actual Results:  
No compile

Expected Results:  
Compile
