'udevinfo' no longer seems to be available across various distros. 'udevadm' seems to be the currently valid way to look up the 'udev' version.
Tested on: Gentoo Linux Debian 6.0.10 Oracle Linux Server release 7.1 Rely on regex to find the version number, rather than rely on numerical input to be found in a particular input field. Proposed implementation also eliminates the necessity to invoke 'grep' + 'awk'.
