I suppose this may be because some of the persistent-input rules require libusb? For the graphical installer we created a (fairly large) extra udeb that contains persistent-input because X.Org needs it. The size of that udeb is I think related to the calls to 'input_id' and 'usb_id', which require libudev. However, this is a regression as the Squeeze udeb did support the simple by-path symlinks for platform devices, and AFAICT no external programs are needed for that. I'm not sure what the correct solution is here. Split up 60-persistent-input.rules in udev-udeb? Include the rule needed for the platform devices in qcontrol-udeb instead of relying on udev-udeb?
