Of course. It's USE="-upower" to make.conf and couple of |
| 9 |
/etc/portage/package.use |
| 10 |
entries, like for example 'xfce-base/xfce4-session -udev', as in, some |
| 11 |
packages |
| 12 |
use the generic USE flag 'udev' for pulling upower (which is, |
| 13 |
essentially, a udev helper) |

You may have to avoid some "meta" packages, like gnome-base/gnome, which |
| 16 |
are too |
| 17 |
greedy with their dependencies |
