Yes, for precompiled binaries that should be true. But if there are no
backwards incompatible changes, I should be able to build just fine with
libudev.so.1. The error above is during the build. If I'm building
from source, it should just work, isn't it?

Yes, I know that. That is why I was building from source. Anyway, in
the end I extracted the deb, and did the symlink hack to get it running.
Although I have the feeling their build system is quite broken.
Cheers,
PS: More and more I'm noticing, all these new projects doesn't have any
semblance of decent packaging. They just seem to throw some stuff
together with hardcoded or relative paths, and say try it. Every
community seems to have its own package manager. In this particular
case it (npm) couldn't detect the system wide libraries, and dragged
them in again!

Open source is the future. It sets us free.
