A reasonable question and I don't know the answer, but you can get |
10 |
that file back by re-emerging your existing version of udev first. |
11 |
You can always remove it later after everything is working okay, |
12 |
which is what I did. |

Yes -- if you still have any files in /usr/lib/udev/rules.d you should |
40 |
re-emerge those packages so they are re-installed in /lib/udev/rules.d |
41 |
before rebooting. At least, I know that's what I should have done :) |
