Hi!
Would that qualify as a reason to put it there and have make-kpkg / make deb / make rpm spit out a udev package as well?
shambhala:/var/log> grep -i deprecated syslog | grep udev Oct 25 09:41:22 shambhala udevd[21078]: udev: missing sysfs features; please update the kernel or disable the kernel's CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED option; udev may fail to work correctly Oct 25 09:41:37 shambhala kernel: <3>udev: missing sysfs features; please update the kernel or disable the kernel's CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED option; udev may fail to work correctly Oct 25 13:35:10 shambhala kernel: <3>udev: missing sysfs features; please update the kernel or disable the kernel's CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED option; udev may fail to work correctly It seems that nothing critical is not working, but I only found this by closely watching the boot process at all.
Granted, for a long time I did not see any udev/kernel version mismatch or configuration option mismatch issues, but back in udev early days I were hit several times by those annoyances.
Ironically I was about to disable CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED when it was introduced, but then HAL didn't work.
There should be an easy way to figure out whether kernel and deeply related userspace tools are matching each other.
