That sounds like a case for package.use.mask for the given packages in
prefix profiles?

But in various cases it's about getting notified of plugged in devices.
But yes, then the question is if the prefix libudev can get these
notifications from host udev or some such.

But you are getting this already for various packages from their IUSE
defaults +udev usage as far as I can see.


Anyhow, I concede to the problems stemming from USE_ORDER described by
mjo and retract my strong preference of global USE=udev, pending proper
solution for those problems. However concrete examples as asked by Matt
would be nice.
Someone should work on that USE_ORDER issue... This IUSE default vs
profiles trouble keeps coming up every couple of months..
