But how compatible are the libudev from the modern udev bundled with systemd, and the old udev? Also, Olivier's patch doesn't update all the packages that depend on udev so that they can either depend on the old udev, or systemd. That's why I started this thread, to decide where we want to go, and then implement the relevant patches. Without knowing this direction, it was impossible to review Olivier's patch properly.
