According to the release notes found here: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2014-October/024662.html systemd expects util-linux-2.25 due to a possible dead-lock in fsck code in prior versions. Steps to resolve: change ebuild to depend on >=sys-apps/util-linux-2.25 Reproducible: Always
