I thought the point of this discussion had to do mostly with what |
| 27 |
udev variant gets installed when a user doesn't specify one. And |
| 28 |
AFAIK, since there are still plenty of packages that *DEPEND on |
| 29 |
virtual/udev , the discussion's still worth having isn't it? |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
Besides, if we just move the goal of this discussion from "order of |
| 32 |
atoms in virtual/udev" to "order of items in this new Handbook |
| 33 |
page", we still need to decide what the default is don't we? |
