start_udev is still there because people were jackasses and didn't
update initscripts when they updated udev.... or something.. I can't
remember the issue, but it was people being foolish and expecting
their systems to boot fine.

Is everyone ok with removing it?


A suggestion was made 3 times to simply add a conflict line :

This is just a safety against foolish people.

Added locally.

Copied from arch-general (whoops, replied to the wrong list) regarding
the readme file we ship with the udev package

Actually, I think we should remove this file. Reloading rules and all
that is covered by the man pages and any arch specific documentation
should be added to a wiki page so anyone can edit it.

Any issues with removing this? We don't ship custom readme's with any
other packages that I know of.


I do ship a custom readme for qingy. At first, I was pointing people to the wiki article I had created. Then, I got somewhat uneasy about having to rely on a document that anyone can edit (qingy is a login manager so it's somewhat critical) even though I was receiving email notification everytime the article was edited. Therefore, I put the wiki info in a readme. In the case of udev, if you want to rely on the wiki, someone should watch the article edits carefully.


Additionally, do we need the migrate-udev script anymore? I sincerely
hope not. Any qualms with killing THAT off too?
