I don't know why it does this but I can perhaps give some pointers as to
where to look.

udev-hwdb was installed in the image. First question is whether that is
actually in the build dependencies. "bitbake
core-image-minimal-initramfs -c rootfs -g", then grep task-depends.dot
and see if udev is in there. If not, there is the question of why the
image is installing something not in its dependency list. a "bitbake
udev" will probably make the problem "disappear".

If it is there, we have a dependency so the question is why the file
doesn't exist. udev do_packagedata should write out files into
sysroots/intel-internal-corei7-64/pkgdata/runtime-reverse/ for each
package it generates. Are the other udev packages there? Is there a
stamp for the udev do_packagedata task?

Cheers,
