There is no reason to set an epoch at all.

the package should not build or ship libudev... but libeudev and have:
"Provides: libudev1 (=<libudev version>)
"Replaces: libudev1

This allows a drop in replacement for libudev without the name conflict
and provides a seemless transition to eudev.

same goes for all other packages replaced by eudev equivalents
