I haven't built a test package, but instead I have patched the compiled
deb package with dpkg-deb -R and dpkg-deb -b and tested the upgrade
process

I'll build udev from the source package in the next days, then I'll
test again the upgrade process (manually removing rc*.d/K* symlinks
before install the new package) and the shutdown fix

I think it should not be attributed to me, as it's the result of a very
collaborative work, especially (in order of appearance) Guilhem Moulin,
Theppitak Karoonboonyanan, Felipe Sateler, Michael Biebl, Pali Rohár
and at last me
