eudev is the standalone fork of systemd's udev. Add it purely as a lightweight source of libudev.so.1 — many packages link libudev, but until now the only pantry provider was all of systemd.io (200+ binaries). Built with blkid/selinux/kmod/hwdb disabled, the resulting libudev.so.1 needs only glibc. Verified building v3.2.14 from source (linux/x86_64): configure + make + make install produce lib/libudev.so.1 (NEEDED: libc.so.6 only) and bin/udevadm.

libudev.so.1 was the largest residual FROM-scratch gap (open-mpi, hwloc, openpmix, solana, fnox). The only pantry provider was systemd.io — 200+ binaries for one client library. Map libudev to the new lightweight github.com/eudev-project/eudev recipe instead (pkgxdev/pantry#13922; its libudev.so.1 needs only glibc). Also map the libcap.so.2 those same packages need to the existing kernel.org/libcap bottle. libudev resolution activates once the eudev bottle publishes; libcap works now.

The linux/x86-64 + linux/aarch64 builds passed; darwin fails because udev is Linux-specific. Restrict to platforms: [linux]. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Adds eudev, the standalone fork of systemd's udev, purely as a lightweight provider of
libudev.so.1.Why
Many packages link
libudev(open-mpi, hwloc, openpmix, solana, …), but the only pantry source oflibudev.so.1is currentlysystemd.io— pulling all of systemd (200+ binaries) just for one client library. eudev provides the samelibudev.so.1in a handful of files.Build
Built with the udevd-only features disabled (
--disable-blkid --disable-selinux --disable-kmod --disable-hwdb --disable-introspection --disable-manpages), so the library's runtime closure is just glibc.Verified building v3.2.14 from source on linux/x86_64:
configure && make && make install→lib/libudev.so.1(readelf -d: NEEDED =libc.so.6only) +bin/udevadm(udevadm --version→251, exit 0).🤖 Generated with Claude Code
