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). [...]
Udev and systemd are in full sync with the configure options now.
You better read NEWS in the udev tree, and not just install new things
in a running system and hope all works. :)
I had in fact read udev's NEWS and acted accordingly, i.e. changed
the --libexecdir= configure line, installed libkmod, etc. (I was
already up to date in respect of devtmpfs and /run). I don't think
my booting problem lay with udev, but rather with systemd, whose
package contains no docs pertaining to configuring/installing or
changes from the previous version.
