I've used "pacman -Qdt" quite often but since yesterday it shows packages that it probably should not:
autoconf2.13
hal
pm-utils
pm-quirks
hal-info
dmidecode
consolekit
xorg-server-xvfb
yasm
If I remove "orphans" like pm-utils or hal, I will only know that they weren't orphans. For example pm-utils was explicitly installed and without hal Xorg/xmonad won't start.
Can anyone explain to me what's going on here?

Thanks, yet I have no idea why Xorg/xmonad won't start after removing these orphans and is instantly fixed by installing hal and its dependencies.
And also how pm-utils can be an orphan when I know that I installed it explicitly (pacman.log is with me here).
And also why hal etc. did not show up before with -Qdt.

Thanks for making me take a closer look again! At least the hal issue is resolved. It was its dependency consolekit that I used in .xinitrc with "ck-launch-session".
EDIT: In .xinitrc I replaced "exec ck-launch-session xmonad" with "xmonad". Seems to work.
