As I and others have said on this list a thousdand times, moving everything to /usr never had anything to do with systemd and udev. This is a completely separate topic. The arguments for moving everything into /usr seem to be pretty strong [1], and as gregkh and others have said, it would benefit us in the longrun to do it. Given that, that is not even what I'm discussing. I am just discussing moving the libraries that we manually install into /lib* back to /usr/lib* on Linux.
