While I know for Linux desktop systems libuuid is _necessary_ this is not so on Gentoo/FreeBSD systems (and actually e2fsprogs-libs is currently colliding with the system libraries). I'm also going to submit to libSM upstream a patch to actually use the _system_ uuid functions instead of the ones from the library, when available, so it might have to be looked again in the future, but for now a switch would be a good idea ;)
Diego, got a patch for this? I can commit them directly. Thanks
I have a patch on FreeDesktop's bugzilla that make it use the FreeBSD variant of the UUID functions, but the configure.ac as it is now should allow disabling uuid usage.
URL please? Thanks

fwiw upstream applied my patch.
I know, I just made a release of libSM. I'll be putting it in portage Real Soon Now (tm) Thanks
Fixed with 1.1.1. This is the first time I do weird stuff with arch-specific deps, please let me know if this could be improved. Thanks

I would have used elibc_FreeBSD instead of arch because that's the libc that provides the functions :) (and this'll easily allow other fbsd arches to come in)
