Description Sylvain BERTRAND 2012-09-03 20:45:17 UTC
C++ free systems cannot compile udev because it's hard dependent on gperf
which forces installation of a C++ compiler.
Comment 1 Lennart Poettering 2012-09-07 14:25:02 UTC
gperf is a build time dependency (not runtime), much like gcc which requires C++ these days too. Also, we optimize for runtime dependencies, not build time dependncies.

Closing.
