It's not recommended at all to build udev with jhbuild actually, jhbuild probably tried to build it because it couldn't find the udev/gudev development headers on your machine. However since the older tarballs are unlikely to come back to kernel.org, updating the tarball used by the gnome moduleset would be a good improvement. Christophe
