Let's see what I used in my most recent eudev package:


Replaces: udev (<< 215-17ebbian1),
           udev-systemd
Conflicts: udev-systemd


So it looks like I dropped the B reaks line since my last push to
Devuan? I guess it was causing some difficulty for me, but I didn't
document what it was.


I took the Replaces/Conflicts from other packages in the Debian repo
that changed names and had multiple providers.

All of the package names are still "udev-*"; there are just both eudev-*
and udev-systemd-* flavored providers of them. The "udev-*" ones are
just meta packages or shims.

I've been bad about pushing to github, but I do have the x86 packages up
for Jessie:

http://ftp.ebbian.org/ebbian/pool/main/e/eudev/

Looks like I have a few other piddle build fixes in that source since I
stopped pushing to Devuan, too.
