+Well, we just migrated away from hal, and some of the migration was

+Maybe a bit early to drop it?

+Can't we have thirdparty depending on gstreamer 0.10?

+Weird, we should investigate that.

+Thomas, I couldn't find the build data of latest live releases, probably
+because /home/draklive/var-data is on a tmpfs.
+After a build is completed, we should backup the content of the matching
+/home/draklive/var-data directories on disk.
