"Starting systemd-udevd" in OS starting

Is it after latest update or because I just noticed it recently, when start PC it's read sort of:

Code: [Select]
Starting systemd-udevd ....
and Would that mean it still uses systemd ?
Please help !

udev is part of systemd

since we want benefit of udev but not the systemd. this package installed without systemd.
but it still is a systemd component.

to your main question, No, you don't use systemd

iirc eudev was used before, which was a fork of udev to remove the hard dependency on systemd. After a while that hard dependency was removed so eudev development was halted since it wasn't needed anymore, plain udev was used ever since. The only thing that changed now is the udev developer put the text 'systemd' in the loading program. Is it annoying, yes. I presume udev will get forked again to remove that string of text.
