Hi Musca,
Another bug is related to the udev rules directory. It's similar to this 
one.
https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2804
(You could also use 'udev' to filter the message in oe-core list to see 
the previous discussions on this topic.)
It seems alsa-utils does not seem to be the only package that hardcodes 
its udev-rules-dir.
Besides, udev cannot start properly if installed under /lib64.

#!/bin/sh

### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides:          udev
# Required-Start:    mountvirtfs
# Required-Stop:
# Default-Start:     S
# Default-Stop:
# Short-Description: Start udevd, populate /dev and load drivers.
### END INIT INFO

export TZ=/etc/localtime

[ -d /sys/class ] || exit 1
[ -r /proc/mounts ] || exit 1
[ -x /lib/udev/udevd ] || exit 1
[ -f /etc/default/udev-cache ] && . /etc/default/udev-cache
[ -f /etc/udev/udev.conf ] && . /etc/udev/udev.conf

The question here is:
Whether we should always install udev under /lib or patch all packages 
that hardcodes udev-rules-dir to be under '/lib'. Maybe there are other 
better approaches?

Please have a look at these and let me know your opinions.

Thanks a lot,
Chen Qi
