Hi Mike, Sam |

This is the last I saw on the ML regarding eudev - has there been a |
| 4 |
change of strategy regarding eudev since? |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
I note that the default provider for the virtual is systemd-utils[udev], |
| 7 |
followed by sys-fs/udev, sys-fs/eudev and finally sys-apps/systemd. |
| 8 |
This contradicts the wiki page which states that sys-fs/udev is the |
| 9 |
default (https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Udev). |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
Is there more comprehensive documentation around about this, and which |
| 12 |
should be preferred when? |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
The commit to un-last-rite this is the only information I can find, and |
| 15 |
I don't see major releases since. |

It's now being maintained by a new upstream. I still recommend users |
| 24 |
use sys-fs/udev as sys-fs/eudev has not been rebased on newer |
| 25 |
upstream (yet?) but this allows choice for people who feel |
| 26 |
strongly about this, I suppose. |
| 27 |
|

Boot-tested and e.g. udevadm seems to work correctly with new |
| 29 |
hwdb bits. |
