systemd capabilites:
+
The systemd-udevd compiled within the module systemd lacks a capability in
the environment variable DEVTYPE at least in regard to USB devices, so an
entry ENV{DEVTYPE}=="usb_device" in an udev rule file rule will not work.
+
This applies to several versions, tested so far 195, 204, 206.
In contrast to this a hand-copied distribution binary will work flawlessly
within the openSLX biotope.
+
+It does not seem possible right now to circumvent this problem, as this kind
+of problem seems to be unknown even irc/systemd development group. So as a
+workaround the systemd-udevd will be restarted in addon-init. But the danger
+of losing queue messages needs to be kept in mind, and if a solution arises,
+the udevd restart line should be deleted.
