Update udev

bokeh · 2015-10-19 15:33:35

Hi all,

Udev version in wheezy is 175-7.2, but i add some rules that need udev version higher that 188. Udev version in wheezy backports is 204-14. How to upgrade to backports version? Is it safe for the system?

Thanks

After updating to backports version, it still doesn't work, i think because there are 2 udev version installed. How to remove the older one?

I was using this tutorial to install udev

I don't speak German (?) but I'm pretty sure that's telling you that the backports version is installed and being used.

To get the output in English, use:

LC_ALL=C apt-cache policy udev
