Thanks for your help in this matter. Your advice allowed me to locate |
| 10 |
the exact error, and after some searching I believe that I have found |
| 11 |
the cause of the problem. It is the issue of not using UDEV. |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
I filed a bug report: |

Because I don't know how to reconfigure the ebuild to use a patched |
| 18 |
source I'll have to wait until the maintainer gets around to applying |
| 19 |
the patch. |

Once again, my decision to avoid the (to me) unnecessary complications |
| 22 |
of UDEV has got me into trouble. It seems that developers just assume |
| 23 |
that everyone uses UDEV and they will, inadvertently or otherwise, overlook |
| 24 |
those few who choose not to do so. I just wonder how long I'll be able |
| 25 |
to exercise this choice. |
