Hi Cyril, I plan to split out udev-udeb and libudev1-udeb from the current src:systemd source package/repo into a new src:systemd-udeb (forked from the old one, so generated udebs will be the same).
This should greatly reduce your workload as src:systemd uploads will no longer be in your way and require actions/reviews, and I do not plan to update src:systemd-udeb more than once per major upstream release in unstable, and never in stable-p-u. It will also allow me to apply several improvements to src:systemd that are currently blocked by the fact that udebs are built from it. The udeb source package will be much smaller and leaner, with drastically cut build deps and so on. So it should be a win/win all around. Are there any particular precautions I should take? It will require a trip through NEW, so for a time the udeb might disappear from unstable until it is processed, but hopefully won't be too long. I think there's somewhere a list of source packages building udebs, that will need to be updated. Anything else? Thanks!
