Re: [gentoo-dev] Changing order of default virtual/udev provider

[William Hubbs]

As one of the maintainers of sys-fs/udev, I am very conflicted about
this.

I tend to agree with Kent that we need to be absolutely sure before we
switch the default that eudev will maintain feature parity with udev,
now and in the future, e.g. when a new release of udev hits, a new
release of eudev must happen asap that supports all of the features of
the new udev.

I also think mgorny's arguments against doing this must be considered.

Thanks,

William
