Description Saul Wold 2016-01-25 17:28:16 UTC 
As we update to the 4.4 kernel for 2.1, we found that udev is starting
to fail due to it being deprecated in favor of the systemd/udev
combination.

Since we want to maintain a sysvinit alternative to systemd we need an
alternative to udev, which is eudev[1].
