Since udev is an essential package, I am posting the output from

seems to be installed although the version number is a weird 1.0.0.
The udev package that gets installed is a transitional dummy
package. It's empty. It has no file. It's just a way to force a clean
upgrade to eudev, You can even remove it after you install eudev.

Yes, a transitional dummy package is needed for that (initramfs-tools,
xserver-xorg-core... depend on udev). I used another one in the case of
vdev, named libvdev1. That was also an empty package allowing the
removal of libudev1 in favor of libudev1-compat.
Thanks to Parazyd and Svante Signell for their work on the packaging of
eudev.
Cheers,
Aitor.
