Gentoo started eudev in part because extracting udev from the larger systemd project became too cumbersome. Each time there was a update the process changed enough to break attempts at automation, apparently.

the Linux From Scratch team adopted eudev for their non-systemd edition ("classic") for a similar reason.

Yeah, I know. Due to inertia, I'm still using sys-fs/udev and will probably continue to do so until Sievers makes good on his implied threat.

i seem to recall that some interfaces had been moved from udev to libsystemd, or something, recently.

Then, perhaps the time for migration to eudev is nigh! :D

I haven't followed the udev saga in a very long time. I do know that I have =sys-fs/udev-224-r2 installed and I don't have systemd installed. I also don't have any executable files on my system named "systemd".
