checking if GLib is version 2.14.0 or newer... yes checking for BLKID... configure: error: Package requirements (blkid >= 1.43) were not met: gnome-config: not found No package 'blkid' found libblkid comes from util-linux which we can't really use on BSD; this bug is for tracking purposes of the issue: either we need libblkid and have to find a way to use the util-linux one or we can avoid it as it seems is done for solaris in hal.
I would try to make a snapshot from hal git repository since it includes a lot of fixed related with this and other bugs that could be interesting to have until migration to powerkit is reached
Like probably this http://cgit.freedesktop.org/hal/commit/?id=383bad1002bf566688cf27863802e8009eb04c93
All that one does is raise the requirements for blkid? I don't see how that helps it being missing on FreeBSD?
Sorry, I misread bug report :'(
