Why wasn't the kernel part separated from the support stuff?
It would seem the correct division (based on article) is
6% kernel
3% kernel support (i guess it would fall in "other")
- pedrocr 15y agoThere's a line there somewhere. Clearly udev is very tightly linked to the kernel and it was built to replace devfs which was inside the kernel. On the other extreme maybe the filesystem programs (e.g., reiserfsprogs or xfsprogs) aren't as tight a coupling and would make sense outside. I put the split into the footnote to make that clearer.
