Description kfm 2011-06-30 03:40:38 UTC 
While reading the description of CONFIG_BLK_DEV_BSG (Block Layer SG support v4) in the kernel, I noticed the following text:

"This option is required by recent UDEV versions to properly access device serial numbers, etc."

For that reason, it may be prudent to add it to CONFIG_CHECK so that the user is warned in case of its absence.

I checked the udev changelog, and it  looks like this is suggested since
udev-145. Zzam, should we add it to all of those ebuilds?
Comment 2 William Hubbs gentoo-dev 2011-07-06 17:18:13 UTC 
I have added this check to all affected versions of udev in the tree.
