Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/games-on-whales/gow/issues/140

I am extremely fresh to using this project, but have been following it for quite a while.

I have just been examining the headless.yml file in the compose/platforms folder, and something doesn't seem quite right..?

As far as I can ascertain, there's a udev:/run/udev/:ro volume entry, yet there isn't a volume mount..? - I can see ones for xorg and pulse - surely udev should be the same? - I have had a quick scan through the bash scripts and I cannot find where such a mount occurs..?

The final compose.yml will be the merge of the selected platform + all the apps + the selected streamer; if you are using the script run-gow you can see how the final yaml will look like by passing --debug.

In this specific case, the udev volume definition is here:
github.com/games-on-whales/gow@d2850aa22f/compose/streamers/sunshine.yml (L55-L56)
or here:
github.com/games-on-whales/gow@d2850aa22f/compose/streamers/wolf.yml (L32-L33)

I hope this answers your question!
