I wonder if there's a recommended path/method for updating
from udev 175 + systemd 37 to the current versions? Given the
reorganization of files in both packages it's quite easy to
end up with a fscked system (as I did today -- system not
bootable; had to boot from CD, remove the new versions and
reinstall the old).
With udev one can force the use of the old /lib/udev location
by giving --with-rootlibdir=/lib --libexecdir=/lib, but I
didn't find a way of making current git systemd install into
/lib/systemd; even configuring with --with-rootlibdir=/lib,
all files that used to go into /lib/systemd go into
/usr/lib/systemd.
In principle I have no problem with everything going under
/usr/lib, it's just that it seems the chances of a successful
update would be better if the old files were overwritten
rather than the new ones being installed in parallel.
Thanks for any guidance.
