 - Build the project:
        make
 
+  Note:
+      There are a number of different flags that you can use when building
+      udev.  They are as follows:
+       prefix - set this to the default root that you want udev to be
+               installed into.  This works just like the 'configure --prefix'
+               script does.  Default value is ''.  Only override this if you
+               really know what you are doing.
+       KLIBC - if set to 'true', udev is built and linked against the included
+               version of klibc.  Default value is 'false'.
+       DEBUG - if set to 'true', debugging messages will be sent to the syslog
+               as udev is run.  Default value is 'false'.
+       DBUS -  if set to 'true', DBUS messages will be sent everytime udev
+               creates or removes a device node.  This requires that DBUS
+               development headers and libraries be present on your system to
+               build properly.  Default value is 'false'.
+
+      So, if you want to build udev using klibc with debugging messages, you
+      would do:
+       make KLIBC=true DEBUG=true
+
