When I first added the udk package in Gentoo, I wanted to install it just like a normal Linux tool instead of staying close to upstream way. As a result, we now have an ebuild which is complicated to understand and maintain, doing some magic work, which is not always the way it is expected by UDK users. As a consequence, depending packages (only refind is currently depending on it) must also be strongly modified to adapt to this ugly installation. I would like to find a way to install it on the target computer the way it is expected (or almost) by upstream project. This would be far easier to maintain, and also easier to use by depending packages.
