Now we have 3 instead of one directory here, that really needs to be
sorted out. It's not cool to just add every random thing here. :)

You are aware that this will not work with the installed binaries in
/lib/udev/ referenced from rules and whatever? The code is really not

It's a mess you are creating here, by not just merging /lib and
