Now that we udev-ng (fork) is going to be created and some packages will be moved to / from /usr to support it, such as kmod, we need an QA check that checks files in /lib, /lib32, /lib64 for NEEDED entries and prints a warning at the end of emerge if libraries from / link to libraries in /usr Otherwise the / will not be maintainable, and it is the main reason that led to this mess we are currently in As in, the output of `scanelf -n` or possible `objdump` needs to be parsed This is my main concern with the issues around the udev-ng fork Thank you!
We also need to check binaries in /sbin and /bin, right? Also should't we check /lib* (not just /lib{,32,64}), since we want to get libx32 as in bug #435834?
If anybody wants to try a patch for this, I'd suggest to do something like our existing "Missing soname symlink(s)" check, which parses the NEEDED.ELF.2 file that's created with scanelf: http://git.overlays.gentoo.org/gitweb/?p=proj/portage.git;a=commit;h=31c9c68d7e96070166fe385141400fa3bcb5950e

Also, really, the resultant ebuild cleanup from dropping it doesn't justify the gratuitous breakage: cost & reward. That said, I would strongly recommend at this point that split-usr users use an initramfs or actively participate in helping to solve split-usr bugs (see e.g. bug 443590) as at some point, the dam is going to break and maintainers may get fed up. It's already a barely-supported situation. Obligatory: none of this has anything to do with "merged /usr".
