Package: udev
Version: 146-4
Severity: normal

The udev(7) manpage stats that IMPORT{program} executes an external
program. However it does not say how, aka what happens if it should
execute a file without full path. Does it use system(2)? Does it use a
specific PATH? Which value does it have? It somehow prefers /lib/udev,
which is obviously not in the normal PATH.
