Description of problem: Since HAL has been deprecated upstream for 3 years, Fedora and all major distributions are removing it: The hal package has already been deprecated by its maintainer and blocked from composes for rawhide. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/HalRemoval There is "done" in the aforementioned link by component exo, but there is still dependency on hal in exo.spec in Rawhide: BuildRequires: hal-devel Why is "done" there then? Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): exo-0.6.0-3
(In reply to comment #0) > Why is "done" there then? How about asking the feature owners of the feature that was never approved? ;)
For exo the dependency is no longer needed, however this wont help us with thunar-vfs and xfburn.
exo-0.6.0-5.fc15 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 15. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/exo-0.6.0-5.fc15

According to xfburn's README, dependency on thunar-vfs is only optional, so if the change of thunar-vfs would be a long-term process, xfburn can be built without it, doesn't it?
It seems thunar-vfs indeed builds without hal now. I will queue build later.
Package exo-0.6.0-5.fc15: * should fix your issue, * was pushed to the Fedora 15 testing repository, * should be available at your local mirror within two days. Update it with: # su -c 'yum update --enablerepo=updates-testing exo-0.6.0-5.fc15' as soon as you are able to. Please go to the following url: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/exo-0.6.0-5.fc15 then log in and leave karma (feedback).
Package is in rawhide, for F15 I have requested a buildroot overwrite for exo and thunar-vfs [1] to build xfburn. Once that is done all three will be deployed in one update. [1] https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/4668
xfburn-0.4.3-5.fc15,thunar-vfs-1.2.0-3.fc15,exo-0.6.0-5.fc15 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 15. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/xfburn-0.4.3-5.fc15,thunar-vfs-1.2.0-3.fc15,exo-0.6.0-5.fc15

Now that hal package has been deprecated, I will also do that, thanks for the suggestion!
xfburn-0.4.3-5.fc15, thunar-vfs-1.2.0-3.fc15, exo-0.6.0-5.fc15 has been pushed to the Fedora 15 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
