[gentoo-user] unmerge hotplug

2006-04-11 Thread Marko Kocić
Hi all,
I wanted to do some cleanup of the system to get rid of some unneeded modules.
emerge -pv --depclean suggested me lately that I should remove hotplug

I have hotplug added at runllevel default. I'm using vanilla-sources
with udev for some time ago.
Is it safe to unmerge hotplug? Has it become obsolete lately?

I recently umnerget coldplug and removed it from runlevel boot, and
haven't found any problem so far. Was that cleaver.

If I remove hotplug will something break?

Thanks,
Marko

If you look into /etc/init.d/hotplug you'll notice that that script virtually 
doesn't do anything but leaves it to coldplug. Since you have already 
unmerged coldplug, ...
