I think this discussion is getting sidetracked.
This didn't start out as a discussion about whether everybody should
have to have systemd on their systems - the answer to that is no.
The question is whether we should have a virtual for udev. Right now
we're not sure how that is going to be packaged as far as systemd is
concerned, so it is premature to make that decision. However, if we
do decide to fork udev then that means we'd almost certainly need to
have a virtual. At that point we'd have two different udev
implementations in the tree - the fork and the one that comes bundled
with systemd.
Where things get dicey is if the two udev implementations start to
diverge and packages need to behave differently depending on which one
is installed - that would become a bit of a mess. Hopefully it won't
come to that.
