Being curious and learning I didn't have the udevinfo symlink, I created it and ran it: # ( cd /sbin ; ln -s udevadm udevinfo ) # udevinfo the program '/bin/bash' called 'udevinfo', it should use 'udevadm info <options>', this will stop working in a future release missing option I understand this to mean that the symlinks are obsolete and are being deleted by newer ebuilds.
