eudev fails to build since 7bd2eae

[q66]

Revision 7bd2eae made eudev fail to build, with something like

=> eudev-3.2.7_1: running pre-pkg hook: 05-prepare-32bit ...
=> eudev-3.2.7_1: running pre-pkg hook: 06-shlib-provides ...
=> eudev-3.2.7_1: running pre-pkg hook: 90-set-timestamps ...
=> eudev-3.2.7_1: setting mtimes to Fri Dec 21 03:15:34 CET 2018
=> eudev-3.2.7_1: running pre-pkg hook: 99-pkglint ...
=> ERROR: eudev-3.2.7_1: /etc/udev/hwdb.d is forbidden. Use /usr/lib/udev/hwdb.d
=> ERROR: eudev-3.2.7_1: cannot continue with installation!

That is because eudev hardcodes its hwdb.d for /etc: https://github.com/gentoo/eudev/blob/master/configure.ac#L176

which results in this:

What should we do? Should we patch eudev for the new path? @maxice8

[q66]

patching it would be rather simple: eudev-project/eudev#144

But I need feedback from the others on how to proceed.

just `mv` them until eudev-project/eudev#127 is merged

since that has been sitting there since 2015, I suggest we ship the patch with eudev for now

[q66]

well, I guess an mv works too...
