No. The obvious thing to do is to roll back to an old udev. You would do
this by grabbing an old version rpm then replace the new (updated)
package with the old one.
The update becomes part of the whole file for udev. This you can't just
remove because it is used by the whole computer!
The udev package didn't *become* a part of the system, it already was
integral part of the system before the update. You couldn't have deleted
udev even before the update.
So I think I need to get out my DVD and look for the old udev rpm and
force it to replace the updated one.
Amazing conclusion.
If that doesn't work do the same thing to the others. A whole lot of
work. Maybe easier to just reload f7?
Or you could try switching to decaffeinated drinks.
Well I have the old udev now. Maybe I need to reboot? It didn't help at
all.
