Fixes a race condition during startup under SysV init.
Add versioned dependency on dpkg (>= 1.19.3) to ensure that a version
of start-stop-daemon which supports --notify-await is installed.
Closes: #908796
Update the SysV init script and mimic the behaviour of the initramfs and
systemd-udev-trigger.service which first trigger subsystems and then
devices during the coldplug stage.

Udev needs writable /sys, so the init script tried to check before starting.
Unfortunately, the check was inverted. Let's add the missing ! to negate the check.
Closes: #915261
Instead of using "ps" to detect a container environment, simply test if
/sys is writable. This matches what's used in systemd-udevd.service via
ConditionPathIsReadWrite=/sys and follows
https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/ContainerInterface/
This means we no longer need procps, so drop that dependency from the
udev package.
Closes: #915095
The udev control socket is no longer removed automatically when the
daemon is stopped. As this can confuse other software, update the SysV
init script to remove the control socket manually and make sure the init
script is executed on shutdown (runlevel 0) and reboot (runlevel 6).
Closes: #791944
Fix udev SysV init script and d-i start script to not write to
/sys/kernel/uevent_helper unconditionally to not fail on a kernel with
CONFIG_UEVENT_HELPER unset.
Closes: #756312
"kmod static-nodes" will write its output to /dev/stdout by default.
That device node is created by udevd as a symlink to /proc/self/fd/1.
Since we run make_static_nodes() in the udev SysV init script before
udevd is started, this device node is not guaranteed to exist and kmod
fails to deal with that properly.
As a workaround, use "kmod static-nodes --output=/proc/self/fd/1".
Closes: #757830
Drop the obsolete check for /sys/kernel/uevent_helper from postinst and
the SysV init script and do not unconditionally overwrite it in the
initramfs hook. Since a long time now udev has been using the netlink
interface to communicate with the kernel and with Linux 3.16 it is
possible to disable CONFIG_UEVENT_HELPER completely.
Closes: #752742
This file created /dev/root, but programs should not rely on that
anyway. If this breaks anything, we need to fix it in that particular
program.
