| bb|hcb | semz: That is not offtopic, but only someone knowledgeable with Gentoo can answer if eudev will be kept as an alternative there... | 09:53 |
|---|---|---|
| dormito | out of curosity: any idea for when eudev will be unmasked again in the main gentoo repos? (for reasons I don't understand, the sys-fs/udev pkg no longer provides the udevd binary, which makes using the system a giant pita, so I had to switch to eudev eariler than I indented) | 13:42 |
| bb|hcb | Maybe blueness or sam_ have some idea | 13:44 |
| Arsen | sys-fs/udev provides udevd | 16:04 |
| Arsen | or, rather, udevadm, since it's consolidated now | 16:04 |
| Arsen | dormito: ^ | 16:05 |
| Arsen | bb|hcb: we should update hwdb | 16:05 |
| Arsen | ... and make a release | 16:05 |
| Arsen | I'll look into the former of that later today | 16:05 |
| Arsen | that's probably a good part of the reason eudev is masked (though, most of the reason is almost definitely because gentoo has little interest in eudev past "udev that works on non-glibc systems") | 16:05 |
| blueness | bb|hcb, not really, i'm about to go live to teach | 16:08 |
| blueness | what's up? | 16:08 |
| blueness | just ask and i'll see about answering later | 16:08 |
| dormito | Arsen: it's consolidated? then it seems the openrc init scripts are broke (or were broke, maybe I just rebuilt at the wrong time) | 16:39 |
| dormito | sometime last week I updated @world, but just rebooted them morning, and quickly noticed that udev was unable to start (which explains why eudev fixed the issue, that build didnt have the consolidation) | 16:41 |
| Arsen | dormito: can you run ``portageq env INSTALL_MASK'' | 16:49 |
| Arsen | the service certainly uses the right file on my system | 16:50 |
| dormito | hmm no output (exit status of 0, thought I'm not wha that does exactly) | 16:54 |
| Arsen | alright | 16:54 |
| Arsen | some people mask *systemd* from being installed | 16:54 |
| Arsen | 249-r3 works | 16:54 |
| dormito | let me check my emerge log to see what version I was running | 16:55 |
| dormito | hmmm 249-r3 is there version that got unmerged. not sure why the service was unable to start udev then. | 16:56 |
| dormito | yeah, my /etc/init.d/udev looks for variants of udevd|systemd-udevd (in various paths) | 16:58 |
| dormito | anyhow. I was intended to run eudev sooner or later anyway | 16:59 |
