Take a look at patch I sent as response to your original one. It is
solved there, you just need to figure out which extra needs which
libraries. So you could for example write:
select USBUTILS if UDEV__EXTRA_USB_ID
Note that udev-150 checks for glib when configured with --enable-extras,
but I do not see it selected.
