Yeah, the version does not really matter I guess, would be nice though
to have one. Everybody ships HAL snapshots anyway, because of the lack
of releases. :)

This needs to be merged as soon as udev has has switched over to
libblkid, which will not take many days longer than the release of
util-linux-ng. Libvolume_id will be removed from the udev tree with
this step, now that we have a working version of libblkid in
util-linux-ng.

Thanks,
