Hi Osier,

Is there libudev-devel or udev-devel package available on CentOS 5.6 ?

[root@~]# yum search udev-devel
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror

 * base: centos.aol.in

  | 1.1 kB     00:00
extras

  | 2.1 kB     00:00

[root@~]# yum search libudev-devel

Please suggest further and also it seems like this package is not
available in CentOS 5.6
