Move UDEV helper scripts to /lib/udev #20

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Executable scripts are not supposed to be in /etc, instead /lib can be used
for this. Ubuntu at least has UDEV helper scripts located in /lib/udev.

The basic motivation is from the Linux Hierarchy Standard which states that: 
"The
/lib directory contains those shared library images needed to boot the system 
and run
the commands in the root filesystem, ie. by binaries in /bin and /sbin." UDEV
binaries are in /sbin.

Gentoo has UDEV helper scripts located in /lib/udev as well.
Let's move it.

I recommend that we also rename the scripts:

  remote.sh               -> remote-device-manager
  remote-micaz-symlink.sh -> remote-device-name

This seems to follow better the convention of existing UDEV scripts (although 
they
use underscores) and the MicaZ script is not really limited to just this 
platform, at
least in theory.
