non linux doesnt mean prefix; from the ebuild: RDEPEND="... !prefix? ( >=sys-fs/udev-164-r2 ) ..." econf ... $(use_enable !prefix udev) can i haz a more controlable variable that i can mask plz ?
e.g. tight this to the udev useflag or add a udevcore useflag that you enable by puting it in profiles/base/package.use.force so that others can disable it
Fixed, the udev USE flag now controls everything. Prefix installations should still work since udev is use.masked on prefix. > 24 Apr 2012; Alexandre Rostovtsev <tetromino@gentoo.org> gvfs-1.10.1.ebuild, > gvfs-1.12.0.ebuild, gvfs-1.12.1.ebuild: > Make udev USE flag control everything udev-related to fix gvfs on bsd (bug > #413303, thanks to Alexis Ballier).
If we put it behind the udev useflag, we should make it clear to linux based users that disabling it is not supported, at least from upstream standpoint which is often ours.

Why not? If you disable udev, gvfs loses the ability to handle any sort of removable media or determine mounts and devices for files outside of your home directory. However, network mounts, for instance, should still work fine.
