We just succesfully converted ~300 ebuilds in tree without revision bumps from virtual/udev[gudev,introspection,static-libs] to virtual/libudev and virtual/libgudev Tested it on multiple boxes, went fine. Nobody has filed bugs at http://bugs.gentoo.org/, nobody has filed a single forums post, nobody has said anything at #gentoo, Freenode Only one person said he had to manually build 2 GNOME related packages, simple-scan and something else So, broken? Far from it. More like essential feature. People have just listed some known races dynamic deps have, and I take those races anyday over an regression that causes endless rebuilding... - Samuli
