Presumably this is built on one of Debian or Ubuntu with libudev.so.0. The "proper" way to fix it would be to build CEF on your own [1], which would give you a copy of CEF linked to the proper version of udev. You can then plop the libcef.so you built in place of the Adobe-provided binary and use that, and linking should work as normal. However, building anything chromium-related is...fun to say the least. I wouldn't judge you if you just ran 'ln -sf libudev.so.1 libudev.so.0' and hoped it doesn't segfault. :-) -T.C.
