Fixed the udev and speedtouch packages

Today I uploaded a new udev package which fixes a postrm failure and packaged the latest speedtouch release which fixes a possible security bug.

I started looking at how to implement a script which could synthesize dev.d events for systems not using udev, but I'm not sure this is a viable option. Every involved init script would have to run a command anyway, and some information needed is hard or difficult to synthesize.

I should work on hotplug, but I am still procrastinating.

I should also work on ppp, but most open bugs are very complex and I do not have much free time in this period. I also don't know enough about the protocol to fully understand the patches proposed, and I do not want to risk subtly breaking the package just before the freeze. Will somebody help me?
