If CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER is supposed to be set to N then why is FW_LOADER set to automatically on when choosing the systemd Option in the kernel. I'm trying to get rid of this warning when compiling systemd: CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER is set, and it should not be. See the following check: pkg_pretend() { if [[ ${MERGE_TYPE} != buildonly ]]; then local CONFIG_CHECK="~AUTOFS4_FS ~BLK_DEV_BSG ~CGROUPS ~CHECKPOINT_RESTORE ~DEVTMPFS ~EPOLL ~FANOTIFY ~FHANDLE ~INOTIFY_USER ~IPV6 ~NET ~NET_NS ~PROC_FS ~SIGNALFD ~SYSFS ~TIMERFD ~TMPFS_XATTR ~UNIX ~CRYPTO_HMAC ~CRYPTO_SHA256 ~CRYPTO_USER_API_HASH ~!FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER ~!GRKERNSEC_PROC ~!IDE ~!SYSFS_DEPRECATED ~!SYSFS_DEPRECATED_V2" snip } While I have no issues disabling this option, it's nearly impossible to do via the ncurses config menu. Under CONFIG_FW_LOADER there are too many options for me to list here, that are already set, that all need to be unset. Even a module doesn't count as turning it off. Could whomever is in charge of the init systems hook for systemd under the Gentoo Linux option, consider disabling all the options in this category? I can live with the warning, but this would be a nice enhancement etc
