Thinking again about this: an hotplug udeb is not be strictly needed,
because current versions of udev already provide the hotplug multiplexer.
The hotplug package currently provides:
- a firmware loader hotplug agent
- support for hotplug of network devices
- coldplug (hardware detection and loading the drivers)
I think that d-i actually needs only the first item, and since it's not
critical for many devices I will deal with it later.
So the next udev-udeb package will not depend anymore on hotplug-udeb.
(I do not follow closely d-i developement, so if something is needed
from my packages please send mail or look for me on IRC ASAP.)
