Alsa-utils in testing currently doesn't install with udev in testing, and furthermore upgrades of udev is utherly broken. Udev installation will die when running a kernel >2.6.12, but old udev will be broken when running a 2.6.12 kernels as far as i understand, this leads to a udev created circular deadlock, which is much less than user friendly, and which should be solved in a nicer manner. MAybe you could have udev install complete when upgrading to 2.6.12/new udev, but not be activated or such. Did you really need to make such a mess about this ?
