pretty much every tutorial out there refers to udevinfo.

the debian web search shows that it's in the udev unstable package, but
when I look at the list of files under udev, it's not present.

has it been replaced by something else ?

Thanks,

Brian

All the udev... commands are integrated into udevadm now, e.g.:

udevinfo -> udevadm info
udevtest -> udevadm test

etc.

Presumably packages.debian.org finds it in the outdated m68k package;
other architectures should no longer have it.

Yes, by "udevadm info". In udev 117, udevadm was introduced and
udevinfo and other programs turned into compatibility symlinks. The
symlinks were deprecated in udev 128 and removed for good in udev 147.
