thanks. judging from this, it seems adding a dep on libx11 should
probably be sufficient.

cool. understanding the system as a whole and being able to modify every
component is exactly what sabotage linux is about.
i didn't have the opportunity to dig into mdev deeply yet, so i'd be
glad if someone could come up with a solution that fully replaces
(e)udev for desktop usage (as laid out in henrique's mail).
unfortunately, other major packages like mesalib start depending on
libudev these days so we may have to write patches to be able to stay
mdev-only...
