Let's see them. I'll help you: https://bugs.gentoo.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=eudev&list_id=1920856 > >> let's see them.

Eudev just left beta. From the eudev changelog. *eudev-1.2 (01 Aug 2013) 01 Aug 2013; Ian Stakenvicius <a...@gentoo.org> +eudev-1.2.ebuild, -eudev-1.2_beta.ebuild: version bump, remove beta Just keep telling yourself this stuff and maybe one day you will convince someone besides yourself. In the meantime, others and myself will continue to use eudev, whether you agree or not. Keep the pity for yourself OK. I don't need it. Dale :-) :-) -- I am only responsible for what I said ...
