Description Manuel Rüger (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2013-01-18 20:15:02 UTC 
IUSE="gudev hwdb introspection keymap selinux static-libs"

DEPEND=""
RDEPEND="|| ( ~sys-fs/udev-171[gudev?,hwdb?,introspection?,keymap?,selinux?]
        ~sys-fs/eudev-0[gudev?,hwdb?,introspection?,keymap?,selinux?] )"


static-libs doesn't force anything here.
Comment 1 Samuli Suominen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2013-01-19 17:11:51 UTC 
right, udev-171 always builds static-libs but newer udev's doesn't. so it's required also in the older ones so apps can add dep like:

virtual/udev[static-libs]
Comment 2 Samuli Suominen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2013-01-27 14:14:18 UTC 
USE=kmod is also useless flag for 171 but it's there to allow virtual/udev[kmod] dep to be used

this will autoresolve itself after removing 171 from tree after the stabilization of 197-r3 is done
