GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 619214
Use udev instead of HAL

All the code lives in hardware.py. The fdi hacks will need to be fixed as well.
We'd be using python-gudev...
gnome-lirc-properties is obsolete and relies on outdated technology (HAL instead of udev). Most of the functionality is now integrated directly into the kernel, and Wayland has support for passing some keys up the stack to applications, that were ignored/dropped with X11.
