I expect systemd-udevd to be migrated into kdbus, which means libudev, libgudev-1.0 and the systemd-udevd binary itself will likely need the libsystemd-bus library, which we will then package and ship together with sys-fs/udev Or if systemd-udevd binary starts requiring a running service of some of the systemd services, then we will make those available as well and run the from the udev-init-scripts, or possibly even adjust sys-apps/openrc to compensate for the inadequaties Just trying to say, that even with kdbus pending, I'm not worried at all - Samuli
