9	I found that this bug 172830 <http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=172830>.
10	This bug has to do with libgphoto2.
11
12	Yesterday, I set the environment variable CAMERAS to only "directory",
13	as I don't have any camera requiring special treatment. When libphoto2
14	is build with CAMERAS=directory (and nothing else), it'll create bad
15	HAL files.
16
17	Workaround: Either don't set CAMERAS at all (meaning that all cameras
18	will be built), or add at least one "dummy" camera. I took the 2nd
19	solution; ie. in my make.conf, I now have: CAMERAS="ptp2 directory".
20	After having rebuild libgphoto2, the system starts up fine.
21
22	Have a nice day,
