Udev, Policykit and NetworkManager

[Tiago "Salvador" Souza]

Hello All,

I've been progressing with my build fine for 2.28, but as usual, I've
ran into some potential issues.

Some packages are requiring a newer version of Policykit (which is now
named polkit), which by itself is not that much of an issue, except that
the new PolicyKit stopped shipping polkit-dbus, which is required by
NetworkManager 0.7. The next version of NetworkManager (0.8, which was
suggested by the people on #nm) on the other hand, doesn't require this
polkit-dbus anymore, but instead requires a newer udev.

So, does anyone have any suggestions on how to escape this little
annoyance? :)
