OK, so parts of the news item are not to be taken literally, and other

Context is everything.

You can't equate

"Remove the udev-postmount init script from your runlevels."

with

"If /etc/udev/rules.d/80-net-name-slot.rules is an empty file or a
symlink to /dev/null,"

The first can obviously be taken quite literally, while the second just might actually require a tiny bit of thought - ie, 'hmmm, wonder if they mean literally 'empty', or just nothing in it that does anything?

Imnsho, the latter is obviously what was meant, while just as obviously a truly *empty* file would do the same thing as one with no *effective* content.
