    Summary: udev - an userspace implementation of devfs
    Description: 
    Starting with the 2.5 kernel, all physical and virtual devices in a
    system are visible to userspace in a hierarchal fashion through
    sysfs. /sbin/hotplug provides a notification to userspace when any
    device is added or removed from the system. Using these two features,
    a userspace implementation of a dynamic /dev is now possible that can
    provide a very flexible device naming policy

    - Fix compatibility with packages which install files outside %_prefix, IOW,
      in the legacy unmerged-usr locations. (thanks to sin@)

    - 255.6
    - Migrate from /lib to /usr/lib (usrmerge).
    - Build with p11kit and fido2 support.

    - Adapted the package for filesystem >= 3:
      + put /bin after /usr/bin in default PATH for spawned processes;
      + fix symlink targets which were relative for standalone legacy directories.
      This makes us incompatible with filesystem < 3.
