 ========
 Bugfixes.
 
-The path_id, usb_id, input_id tools are built-in commands now
-and the stand-alone tools do not exist anymore. For testing,
-the commands can be run with 'udevadm test-builtin <cmd>'.
+The udev daemon moved to /lib/udev/udevd. Non-systemd init systems
+and non-dracut initramfs image generators need to change the init
+scripts. Alternatively the udev build needs to move udevd back to
+/sbin or create a symlink in /sbin, which is not done by default.

+The path_id, usb_id, input_id tools are built-in commands now and
+the stand-alone tools do not exist anymore. Static lists of file in
+initramfs generators need to be updated. For testing, the commands
+can still be executed standalone with 'udevadm test-builtin <cmd>'.
 
 The fusectl filesystem is no longer mounted directly from udev.
 Systemd systems will take care of mounting fusectl and configfs
 now. Non-systemd systems need to ship their own rule if they
 need these filesystems auto-mounted.
 
-The long deprecated keys: SYSFS, ID, BUS have been removed.
+The long deprecated keys: SYSFS=, ID=, BUS= have been removed.
 
 The support for 'udevadm trigger --type=failed, and the
 RUN{fail_event_on_error} attribute was removed.
