I don't quite understand your question; there is no "built package" that
we distribute. Gentoo is like linux from scratch or the bsd ports
collection. We distribute build scripts that build the software on the
end users' systems.

The issue is that the udev build script now has to install all of the
build time dependencies that systemd needs even though udev doesn't use
them so that the configure script will not fail.

Once these patches are in the tree, I do need to write one more that
fixes configure.ac so that it does the systemd specific checks only when
systemd is enabled, but I need more information before I can write that.
I need to know which dependencies (besides dbus and intltool) are not
needed by udev.

Thanks,

William
