You are welcome, Jaret.

In fact, I have prepared a dedicated test PC and offered myself to be
the "guinea pig" for testing any packages for Devuan. But so far, I have
only been using it to test vdev and your eudev. I am still not sure
which device manager will be used for the initial release of Devuan, as
there is no clear confirmation about that. I doubt that will be vdev if
Devuan would be released this year, as it needs more time to stabilise.
So what I have been doing is basically to show some options which I
thought might speed up Devuan development, as I wrote on the subject of
this thread.

Anyway, I have finally managed to install your eudev on my Debian wheezy
install without any tweaks as shown below, after you committed the
changes on debian/udev.init. My next step is to backport all packages on
Debian wheezy that depend on libudev0,from Debian jessie then purge
libudev0.

I have been "cleaning" some Debian wheezy packages from anything related
to systemd,recompiling and using them as I posted at the beginning of
this thread.I know that might sound unreasonable, but I am really
determined to have packages that are clean from anything related to
systemd. I believe that will be easier or possibly I don't need to do
that any more after I use Devuan.

Cheers,

Anto
