Comment(by matthew@…):
From reading Kay's reply at
http://www.spinics.net/lists/hotplug/msg05330.html, it looks like they
expect everyone to be following the merged / & /usr layout already! This
is the trouble when the same maintainer seemingly looks after several
areas of a distro at the same time; they lose the ability to
understand/acknowledge that not all distros use the same layout, so such
assumptions don't necessarily hold. So, now we're in the position that
the upstream kernel will dump firmware blobs into /lib, but Udev expects
them to be in /usr/lib. Using rootprefix='' looks sensible enough for the
time being (i.e. until Kay, Lennart and the gang change the default in the
kernel). I'll fix this up with the version bump.
