Hello arch,

gparted 0.29.1 added support for udftools. Since it is not keyworded on arm, I took the liberty to use.mask it so you can still benefit from the version bump.

But why is it even under USE flag?

https://devmanual.gentoo.org/general-concepts/use-flags/index.html says that

"The usage of a USE flag should not control runtime dependencies when the package does not link to it."

E.g. sys-block/partitionmanager is keyworded on ARM, just like gparted it only needs udftools as runtime dependency, so it doesn't have udf USE flag. If somebody keywords udftools on ARM there manually (with or without USE="udf" flag, both gparted and partitionmanager support udf filesystem)

sys-fs/udftools-2.0-r1 compiles on ARMv7a (Odroid-U2) here and seems to work fine. I think it can be keyworded.

keyworded & use flag unmasked
