+The program vol_id and the library libvolume_id are removed from the
repository. Libvolume_id is merged with libblkid from the util-linux-ng
package. Persistent disk links for label and uuid depend on the
util-linux-ng version (2.15) of blkid now. Older versions of blkid
installed, to drop messages inside a kernel socket filter. The filters
match on the <subsytem>:<devtype> properties of the device.
This is part of the ongoing effort to replace HAL, and switch current

A too old kernel (2.6.21) or a kernel with CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED
is not supported since while and udevd will log an error message at
- udev 142:
- o add udev_monitor_filter_add_match_property()
o add tests for kernel provided DEVNAME logic
-
o drop modprobe floppy alias (SUSE), it will be in the module (2.6.30)
o remove MMC rules, they got a modalias now (2.6.30)
o add scsi:t-0x09* to "ch" and remove modprobe rule (2.6.30)
-
o convert readdir loops to unlinkat(), fstatat()
o implement path_id in C with libudev (?)
o convert firmware.sh to C (?)
