Interesting. I don't see the contention point, but I do see the
advantage of having a different name from the package shipped with udev.
Perhaps a different new name? libudev-eudev? I'm happy enough with
libeudev (although it takes a bit of squinting to see that it's a
different name than libudev) Or anything else other than libudev, which
in my mind is already taken.
