14 There should be no separate USE flags for udisks:0 and udisks:2. They can
15 be installed *and* ran at the same time.
16 If both are supported, and it's a compile time option, :2 should be forced
17 If both are supported, and they can be automatically detected at
18 runtime, || ( sys-fs/udisks:2 sys-fs/udisks:0 ) syntax
19 should be used
20 We have a Tracker open for migrating to udisks:2 and adding udisks:0
21 support is a bug (regression)
