It's the process of dropping hotplug and replacing it entirely with
udev, since hotplug is old and unmaintained - the idea is it provides
essentially the same functionality, but 1 fewer package to worry about.
What exactly is upstream's take on this? Not the fact that folks
are patching stuff, but the fact that it needs updating. Are the
Udev folks not active in maintaining?
I suppose I just don't understand why folks need to do this on their
own, and there's not some upstream activity to get this stuff right.
Um, no, it's the hotplug folks that aren't updating (or, more
accurately, hotplug devs no longer seem to exist). The udev devs are
still actively maintaining and updating udev.
