Sometimes you need to be brutal. Remember that udev is part of systemd,
which is why you cannot have both packages installed. After unmerging
udev, emerging systemd brings it back anyway. Your only window of risk is
something happening between those two operations, but since you are still
working in a chroot at this point, even that wouldn't matter.
