Not exactly.

Eudev is free of systemd, but it shares nearly 99.5% of it's code base with systemd-udev, plus some minor fix ups from the Gentoo developers.

It's name technically means Extracted udev. You get the same udev if you build the systemd-udev with an extraction kit as eudev, minus the fix ups.

The only time eudev will become a true fork is when kdbus gets official, but no one is betting on it, nor holding our breath... yet.

Isn't eudev actually the systemd-free fork of udev everyone is asking for?
