21 The >=sys-fs/udev-181 in /etc/portage/package.mask means that any udev version
22 equal to or greater than udev-181 is masked from the system. Therefore, the
23 latest version under 181 will be used (stable or unstable depending upon
24 /etc/portage/package.accept_keywords). You can see versions/slots easily by:
