Package: udev
Version: 0.056-2
Severity: wishlist

Reading various FAQs etc on the web, it seems clear that udev can work
fine without hotplug. It also seems that other distributions allow
udev to be used without hotplug. I really don't want to use hotplug:
it takes ages at bootup, loads modules for hardware I very rarely use
and doesn't do anything useful (any modules I want loaded at boot are
compiled in). I'd very much appreciate it if the udev package only
recommended hotplug and made it easy to use it without hotplug.

Thanks

Oliver
