Completely useless with any udev version in the tree; please remove this dependency. Also, if you need to blacklist something, that goes to /etc/modprobe.d and not /etc/hotplug/blacklist; looks like this needs quite a couple of udev fixes to use udev rules instead as well.
I already have a "almost working" udev capi4k-utils in my local overlay. Still needs some work for the USB stuff. I will release it asap.
ping, any news here?
sorry, was on holiday.
Hello, just coming here from a bug where a user has hotplug still installed on his system. Maybe he's victim of this bitrot in the tree. This package looks like an excellent candidate for treecleaners. RDEPEND="usb? ( sys-apps/hotplug ) # install USB hotplug stuff if use usb; then insinto /etc/hotplug/blacklist.d newins "${FILESDIR}/capi.blacklist" capi insinto /etc/hotplug/usb newins "${FILESDIR}/capi.usermap" capi.usermap exeinto /etc/hotplug/usb newexe "${FILESDIR}/capi.hotplug" capi fi Mind you, hotplug hasn't been doing anything at all since like 3 years-old udev releases, meaning the usb functionality is completely broken if it needs some custom udev rules like the above stuff suggests.
Precisely, this has been FUBARed since udev-103-r1. udev-103-r1 (15 Jan 2007) 15 Jan 2007; Matthias Schwarzott <zzam@gentoo.org> +files/udev.rules-103-r1, +udev-103-r1.ebuild: Remove old cdrom-rules, solving Bug #158060. Disable calling hotplugd for compatibility to remove co-existance problems for firmware loading and more, Bug #147006 and Bug #145809.
fixed with -r4.
