Yes. I have a plan for a refactoring of the fork based on the direction the kdbus stuff upstream is going. So back last June they started some major moving of code around. I was hoping to follow them smoothly into kdbus support, but that's not possible (or not easily possible). So I see where they're going and eudev-4 should have kdbus ready. That's the plan but following Lennard is like following the rabbit down the hole. > > Not using kdbus will be like not using /proc. > -- Anthony G.
