Package: hal
Version: 0.5.12~git20090406.46dc48-2
Severity: normal

hal-info contains lots of optional configuration data which may or may
not be wanted by the system administrator.  hal can function without it
and is useful without it.  In fact, hal can be even be viewed as more
useful without hal-info if the administrator disagrees with hal-info
defaults.

Please demote the Depends: hal-info to a Recommends: hal-info
