I run an OpenVZ kernel : linux-2.6.32-openvz-feoktistov.1 - this is the latest for OpenVZ as far as I can tell;[/code] so have masked udev > 171 and am currently running:

Code:

*  virtual/udev
      Latest version available: 171
      Latest version installed: 171
      Size of files: 0 kB
      Homepage:     
      Description:   Virtual for udev implementation and number of its features
      License:       

*  sys-fs/udev
      Latest version available: 197-r3
      Latest version installed: 171-r10
      Size of files: 2,007 kB
      Homepage:      http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd
      Description:   Linux dynamic and persistent device naming support (aka userspace devfs)
      License:       LGPL-2.1 MIT GPL-2


The latest set of updates bring in virtual/dev-manager which then tries:

Code:


jared ~ # emerge -kuavNDt world

 * IMPORTANT: 1 news items need reading for repository 'gentoo'.
 * Use eselect news to read news items.


These are the packages that would be merged, in reverse order:

Calculating dependencies... done!
[nomerge       ] virtual/dev-manager-0
[binary  N     ]  sys-fs/static-dev-0.1  0 kB



If I mask static-dev I get:

Code:

jared ~ # emerge -kuavNDt world

 * IMPORTANT: 1 news items need reading for repository 'gentoo'.
 * Use eselect news to read news items.


These are the packages that would be merged, in reverse order:

Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild   R    ] sys-apps/busybox-1.20.2  USE="ipv6 mdev* pam static -livecd -make-symlinks -math -savedconfig (-selinux) -sep-usr -systemd" 0 kB



Looking at the ebuild this is also an option in dev-manager's RDEPEND list. As is static-dev and virtual/udev (which I have installed).

So why is it ignoring my virtual/udev?

For the moment I'm going to have to mask virtual/dev-manager, but this doesn't seem like a good long term solution...

What does `emerge -p virtual/udev` say?

It says...

Code:

Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild   R    ] virtual/udev-171



Thanks!

Hmm, not sure what's happening there, I'd file a bug report about this.

Samuli Suominen replied (very quickly!) to the bug suggesting making sure I had both sys-fs and virtual udev ebuilds masked and this solved the problem.

It doesn't however solve the underlying problem that there isn't yet, AFAIK, a udev-197 compatible OpenVZ kernel (let alone an ebuild) and I currently have neither skills nor time to work on that...
