I might also add, I printed the manual years ago. I rare
should not even be tried because it is known to not
work. Given that, if a person tries to use mdev to replace udev in a
situation where it is known not to work, then they should read more
closely. It's not Walters fault, it's the person in the chair.
Now, since Walter didn't like the way things are going, can he write
code and be left in peace to do so? Maybe have a little bit of support
while he is doing it?

As a lowly user, I switched very shortly after eudev was started. I
think it was like the second or third release. So far, I've not seen
any problems. It just works.
One thing about Gentoo, for those who don't want eudev, they can always
select another tool.

systemd for a package. Once that was found and removed, the switch was
like it should be. Unmerge udev and emerge eudev.

Like others, I use it but didn't know it wasn't maintained anymore. I
hope someone will step up but if not, looks like we have to use udev.
Dale

t one should check configs and make sure there is no
systemd/udev entries, in case it masks or prevents something from being
installed. I already checked mine.
My vote, give it time. If someone steps up, great. If not, we just
have to switch to udev and move on. Debating it even more is unlikely
to change anything and may even send some running away. I just wish we
knew just how many people actually used eudev. Based on this thread, I
know of 2. I know one of them can't code. That's me!! ;-)

Same here. I have had to re-emerge qt packages several times myself.
It seems that when I do, I have to do them all one at a time too.

well. Speaking of, I need to update again. I stopped using it
because I was always having either one trouble or another.

As a lowly user, I have been banging on this for a few days now. I'm
almost bald from all the hair pulling.

I reboot and everything works, I make a new backup of /etc. Going
to add /var/lib to that to now.

too. I use that but still
make a backup myself, just in case. Generally, a successful reboot is a
good sign that the configs are working.
Going to look into this but the home page doesn't really show me much, yet.

re stable system is to do a emerge -e world and
update that way. At least that has been my experience so far. If Zac
adds some other nifty feature, then I may add to the above as needed.
For the past few years, that has resulted in as stable a system as I can
get. I do from time to time run emerge -e world just for giggles when I
have something acting odd and can't put my finger on the issue.
Sometimes, that fixes it, sometimes not.
Again, most of this comes from experience. The handbook explains it
then the user figures it out from there.
My $0.02 worth.

I might add, I been using Gentoo since 2003. I'm not a dev for sure and
don't do scripting stuff so diggin in the ebuilds doesn't generally help
me much either.
Just a users point of view.
