force udev to recreate all its configuration files


I have upgraded a Lenny installation to Squeeze but as the kernel boots I am receiving a series of complaints from udev telling me that I need to use ATTR{} instead of SYSFS{}.

What should I do?

try

Code:
su (or sudo su)
dpkg-reconfigure udev
/etc/init.d/udev restart

Actually, I already used dpkg-reconfigure but it didn't help.

ADDED LATER:
I removed two udev .rules files from /etc/udev/rules.d and the errors vanished. Also, it appears there are no consequences.
