Almost all udevadm functionality comes from libudev +now. + +udevadm trigger has a new option --type, which allows to trigger events +for "devices", for "subsystems", or "failed" devices. The old option +--retry-failed" still works, but is no longer mentioned in the man page. + +udev 128 +======== +Bugfixes. + +The udevadm info --device-id-of-file= output has changed to use +the obvious format. Possible current users should use the --export +option which is not affected. + +The old udev commands symlinks to udevadm are not installed, if +these symlinks are used, a warning is printed. + udev 127 ======== Bugfixes. +Optical drive's media is no longer probed for raid signatures, +reading the end of the device causes some devices to malfunction. +Also the offset of the last session found is used now to probe +for the filesystem. + +The volume_id library got a major version number update to 1, +some deprecated functions are removed. + +A shared library "libudev" gets installed now to provide access +to udev device information. DeviceKit, the successor of HAL, will +need this library to access the udev database and search sysfs for +devices. +The library is currently in an experimental state, also the API is +expected to change, as long as the DeviceKit integration is not +finished. + udev 126 ======== We use ./configure now. See INSTALL for details. Current
