Agreed, the problem here is that udev has probably not settled by the
time sensord starts (it is in rc.sysinit afterall and start_udev is in
a backgrounded nice -20) and finished it's initialization.

The best thing would be if sensord had udev support instead of a
static configuration file, or in some way wait for the devices
mentioned in the configuration instead of aborting when it can't find
them?

That'd probably require substantial code changes which may breach
feature freeze - should we have a proper solution in 1.3 instead?
