Hello David,

I have to admit that I lied when I wrote on one of that threads that "I
am done with eudev". :)

That fact is that I have been still searching and hoping that someone
managed to use eudev in Debian based distros, and posted that in the
internet like what you did. Would you plan to update
https://git.devuan.org/pkgs-utopia-substitution/devuan-eudev, so we can
try that as well?

Like you, I am also waiting for vdev and I am trying to help Jude as
much as I can. But I think it would be good to have some options, while
we are waiting for vdev to stabilise.

Cheers,

Anto
