Yes, because of a deliberate conflict between udev and hotplug.  A
significant number of packages today depend on udev, including (indirectly)
the official kernel packages.

I'm not sure that this makes hotplug really unusable, though it does make it
unlikely to be used.  This will need to be weighed against the destabilizing
effect of removing such a once-core package from etch at this late date.

I think more information is needed here before deciding whether to remove
the package or downgrade the bug.
