 Very clearly stated.  Thanks.

 Currently I have gnome-base/gnome-3.6.2 with consolekit and no systemd

 Since I wish to continue with Gnome3, I gather that at some point I will
 be reversing the above (consolekit out; systemd in).

 I was planning to wait for the devs to publish a conversion guide.

 As I said to András, you have the wiki:

I looked at the wiki and fear I need a pre-wiki, that is the wiki seems
to assume you know a fair amount about systemd, which I don't.

For example, it seems that instead of /etc/init.d and /etc/runlevels we
have services.  After running
   emerge --changed-use --deep @world
must I check that every entry previously in /etc/init.d now has an entry
in /usr/lib/systemd/system?  What do I do if there is no corresponding
entry?

Similarly, the wiki talks about some configuration files
(e.g. /etc/hostname replacing /etc/conf.d/hostname).  But what about all
the other files in /etc/conf.d?  Do I just copy them to /etc?

In summary I would hope that we get an introductory document (a simple
conversion guide) as a pre-read before the wiki.

The problem is not the wiki, but my lack of the prerequisite knowledge.
The fault, dear Brutus, in not in our stars, but in ourselves

What do you mean?
ConsoleKit is used mainly to recognize if you are a local user or not.

If you don't have ConsoleKit OR systemd-logind, then nothing will 
recognize you are a local user and anything using PolicyKit like for 
example, networkmanager or your desktop's shutdown/restart 
functionality, or automounting by file manager, won't succeed without 
root password because then nothing is telling PolicyKit the user is 
local and fallback to root is applied.


For example, if you don't have sys-auth/consolekit installed then 
xfce-base/xfce4-session will fallback to using `sudo` for authorization 
on shutdown/reboot
But some functionality have no fallback like this at all, so if aiming 
for systemd-less and ConsoleKit-less system, you have to know what is 
what...


I hope that clarifies instead of complicates :P

Correct.

I wouldn't stress about it too much, your choice is do you want to use
Gnome3 or not? And then just use whatever Gnome3 gives as *that* part
you don't have a choice about.

It's a bit like wondering if you *have to* use Qt to get KDE. It's

KDE / systemd user here.
Currently I have to put -consolekit into 
/etc/portage/profile/use.force
to get rid of ConsoleKit because USE=+consolekit is forced for some packages 
in default/linux/amd64/13.0/desktop/kde profile, not matter what you set in 
make.conf.
And systemd is blocking consolekit package.

I consider use.force a deviation from the official and fully supported way. 
Maybe Gentoo devs can resolve it?

Those 3 packages are:
sys-auth/pambase-20120417-r2  USE=(consolekit*)
kde-base/kdm-4.10.5-r1:4  USE=(consolekit*)
net-wireless/bluez-4.101-r5  USE=alsa (consolekit*)

 Is there a compelling reason to switch now?

Well, as stated earlier, ConsoleKit is basically abandonware. Samuli
mentions contingency plans for when CK is no longer an option, but
all and any of those paths will be playing catching up with systemd.
The standards are now being defined by systemd. And, of course, there
are those of us who believe that systemd is in fact a much better
option than OpenRC (or any other init system).

Thanks to the efforts of people like Fabio Erculiani, right now is
kinda easy to switch back and forth between systemd and OpenRC. In
Sabayon (a Gentoo derivative) you can actually choose at boot time
wich init to use.

I would say try it now, when it is relatively easy to switch.

 Don't use Gnome.  I've been using Fluxbox for years :
 it's simple, highly configurable  quite adequate for everyday work ;
 you can use apps from KDE or Xfce, as you please.

Sadly the GNU/Linux DEs are _way_ behind the rest of the software.

Been using Fluxbox since 2003, and very happy. I am presently trying Xfce
again for the upteenth time. ;)Especially for computers to sell people who
need to be _free_ from proprietary OSes.

Thanks Samuli Suominen for your work!

Cheers,
Bruce

This would be a lot less of an issue if someone just wrote a logind ebuild
(wink wink) that provides consolekit like it was originally intended.

But yeah you usually stay away from unmaintained upstreams.

Its fair to say you havent the slightest idea what youre talking about so

Dependency of gnome-control-center:

 gnome-base/gnome-session-3.8.2.1-r1 requires sys-auth/consolekit

systemd? ( =sys-apps/systemd-44-r1[pam] )


 =sys-auth/consolekit-0.4.5_p2012[pam]

consolekit obviously doesn't depend on itself.

 sys-auth/polkit-0.111 requires sys-auth/consolekit[policykit]

polkit:

pam? (
systemd? ( sys-auth/pambase[systemd] )
!systemd? ( sys-auth/pambase[consolekit] )
)

In other words, *ALL* of these packages can use systemd instead of
consolekit (and in the case of pambase, both at the same time). And,
as Mark already linked[1]: ConsoleKit is currently not actively
maintained. The focus has shifted to the built-in seat/user/session
management of Software/systemd called systemd-loginctl, I would not
really count on these packages supporting CK in the future.

Nobody is forcing you to use anything. These are all upstream (GNOME,
freedestkop) decisions, you can't expect them to maintain code that
doesn't follow their technical direction. If you don't like it you can
fork or go use/contribute to other projects all you want. This is the
power of open source, no one can take choice away from you, they can
just make your choice a lot harder to realize.

not possible, logind since systemd = 205 requires systemd and won't 
work on openrc, upstart, and such

as in, the idea of using logind outside of systemd is a dead end

so keeping ConsoleKit in portage for long as it works for long as we 
need openrc for Linux based systems
and when it no longer works, the contingency plan is to ship vendor 
based polkit files that possibly either restore 'plugdev' group or 
provide similar groups to ArchLinux like 'network', 'storage', 'power'

to split up the old 'plugdev'
