Update `udev` to 0.5 #15

Closed anelson closed 4 years ago

anelson commented 4 years ago

The 0.5 line includes an important fix Smithay/udev-rs#18. Without this fix, certain udev operations, including device enumeration, will crash with a segfault on systems using an older version of libudev. The full list of distros impacted by this bug is unknown, but I was able to reproduce it consistently with Debian 8.

Please note that the fix to this issue is an API breaking change. I don't think it impacts this project but you probably shouldn't take my word for it.

Thanks for this! I'll check to make sure it doesn't break anything and then cut a release
