'''circular dependency between eudev and util-linux'''
util-linux uses libudev (eudev) in lsblk (with fallback to libblkid from
util-linux if libudev has not been linked). And udev uses libblkid to find
information about some block devices (specialy cdrom_id, ata_id, etc).
Note that this is well known and cured in systemd book.
'''Solution'''
Build util-linux in chapter 5 for sysv book, as for the systemd book (just
remove ''revision='systemd' ''), move eudev before util-linux in chapter
6, and link /tools/lib/pkgconfig/blkid.pc to /usr/lib/pkgconfig before
building eudev. Also use LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/tools/lib when running ''udevadm
hwdb --update''.
'''Possible side effect'''
None found yet, except it adds one build in chapter 5.
'''Question'''
What is the improvement? lsblk gives more detailed information if built
against libudev, depending n hardware.
