Sweet.

I think it's really nice. I have an additional feature request; it would
be really nice to split udevinfo into a library too; that would give us
the following benefits

 1. Things like hald doesn't need to spawn a gazillion copies of
    udevinfo when doing it's coldplug thing; I think this was asked
    for earlier too. It sure beats reading the udev database directly
    which seems error prone at best, and it would be much much faster.

 2. If you do changes to udevinfo it pretty much right now screws
    things depending on udev (we saw that around udev-013 IIRC);
    with a library you would bump the soname and depsolvers will refuse
    to upgrade.

What do you think?

Thanks,
David
