Description bingquick 2013-04-01 11:23:30 UTC 
sys-apps/systemd-200 now includes udev, but seems missing the /bin/udevadm -> /usr/bin/udevadm link, which causes plymouth failed as it calls /bin/udevadm

We're having /sbin/udevadm compatibility symlink already. /bin/udevadm is too much for me.

I see this thing is patching systemd path anyway. Although I'd really prefer if upstream learned how to use autoconf to find tools if it really needs the absolute path.
Comment 2 Michał Górny archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2013-04-02 12:31:34 UTC 
After discussing this with Samuli, I've moved udevadm to /bin/udevadm in systemd-200-r1. This should fix plymouth for now.

I've also sent a patch upstream which should make plymouth properly autodetect udevadm & systemd-tty-ask-password-agent locations, therefore make patching the latter unnecessary.

I can confirm the systemd-200-r1 fixed this problem. Thanks guys.
