| minime | Hi people, is there an ebuild available for Gentoo users. I would like to have that for my local repository. | 09:36 |
|---|---|---|
| minime | I'm asking because I'm unsure what will happen once I update to hwdata instead of hwids. See: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=717216 especially comment 5! | 09:45 |
| bb|hcb | I can't help with that (I do not have any idea), maybe sam_ or blueness may sched some light? | 09:57 |
| minime | I hope so too! Thank you for responding. | 09:58 |
| Arsen | sched :P | 10:01 |
| Arsen | minime: I dropped those files, that dep in gentoo is to be removed | 10:01 |
| Arsen | I might've forgotten to note that on the bug | 10:01 |
| Arsen | sam handled it | 10:01 |
| Arsen | thanks sam <3 | 10:01 |
| minime | Okay, I drop hwids and update to hwdata? | 10:03 |
| Arsen | just take the live eubild | 10:08 |
| minime | Ah okay thank you very much Arsen! I'll do that. | 10:09 |
| semz | speaking of Gentoo, is eudev just going to stay in the repo or will users need an overlay? | 10:09 |
| semz | there was talk about dropping it but now there's activity again so I'm a bit confused | 10:10 |
| minime | I have copied it to my local overlay. It is masked in ::gentoo. | 10:10 |
| minime | I have a very bad feeling about how Gentoo is handling this... I'm surprised Gentoo is working so hard to remove eudev noe that the development issue has been solved. | 10:13 |
| minime | Thank you for keeping this project alive! | 10:14 |
| Arsen | it's not unjustified | 10:29 |
| Arsen | they're following plans they made when they stopped supporting it | 10:29 |
| Arsen | ideally, I want to rebase on newer systemd-udevd early next year | 10:30 |
| Arsen | since it's a component that is mostly freestanding | 10:30 |
| Arsen | s/supporting/developing/ | 10:30 |
| minime | I know, but I'm very disappointed about the fact that the freedom of choice is no longer a priority! | 10:32 |
| minime | Arsen: what does systemd-udevd mean for users that want a systemd free system? | 10:34 |
| Arsen | the exact same thing eudev means | 10:35 |
| Arsen | absolutely nothing | 10:35 |
| Arsen | eudev is just a rebased systemd-udevd that works on musl out of the box | 10:35 |
| minime | That is great news! | 10:36 |
| Arsen | (systemd-udevd in gentoo works on musl too, btw)) | 10:36 |
| Arsen | good news about udev is that it has to stay relatively runtime-independent of the rest of systemd | 10:37 |
| Arsen | it has essentially no runtime dependency on it, and doesn't force you to use any other systemd component | 10:38 |
| minime | Arsen: thanks for the tips it is much appreciated! | 10:38 |
| minime | Thanks for the earlier advise! I just installed the latest version of eudev on Gentoo and it is working fine. | 14:34 |
| minime | I copied the ebuild for version 3.2.11 to my local overlay | 14:35 |
| minime | changed ~amd64 to amd64 | 14:36 |
| minime | updated @world | 14:36 |
| minime | now hwids has been uninstalled and hwdata is installed and eudev updated | 14:37 |
| bb|hcb | Good news, thanks for the report! :) | 14:41 |
