This bug has occurred for me as well, and my machine is a Thinkpad T42. Same
symptom as /dev/input/uinput is no longer created due to the latest udev and
this package also needs to be updated to reflect that. Need to change
hotkey-setup to only look for /dev/uinput.
System:
Kernel: Linux rmdata
Confirm both presence of bug and success of patch on a Thinkpad R500.
I would suspect many other Thinkpad models are also affected.

Yesterday I noticed that hotkey-setup failed with something like
/dev/input/uinput: no such file or directory
or similar. Re-running the initscript succeeded.
I suspect that device files are not necessarily immediately available
