Posted: Tue Jul 23, 2024 9:31 pm Post subject: [SOLVED] unable to find udev executable |
|
|
Context: I am old and becoming inept, so please be detailed with advice...
I attempted to read the news (eselect news list) and follow instructions -- sorry I can't pin that down more precisely -- and at some point thought it appropriate to upgrade world... that succeeded except that systemd-utils seemed to need +udev as a flag (or so I thought emerge was telling me).
I had a look at package.use where I was surprised to find -udev as a flag to systemd-utils (or so I seem to recall, I might be mistaken) so I removed -udev as a flag to systemd-utils whereupon I proceeded with emergeing it. That resulted in a system which boots but complains "unable to find udev executable" and whereas the keyboard works in the console, I have no keyboard or mouse when I start X. CALL THIS STATE Q
Thinking I f*cked the poodle, I tried to add back the -udev flag and emerge systemd-utils which resulted in a long list from emerge @preserved-rebuild which scared me so I stopped there because (among other things) xorg-server would have been rebuilt by emerge @preserved-rebuild which makes no sense to me because it did not change when going from systemd-utils -udev to +udev so how therefore should xorg-server change due to my putting systemd-utils back to -udev ?!
At this point it was clear I had no clue but after spending time with google I somehow got the idea that I should return to STATE Q because fixing from there might make sense. O.K., emergeing systemd-utils with +udev compiled but produced "failed to send reload request: Connection refused." After that I rebooted which seemed to put me back in STATE Q.
There are paths in /etc/init.d/udev which presumably are being searched for (some variant of) udev so I thought maybe I somehow failed to have udev installed (or I somehow removed it) but emerge -vp udev reports virtual/udev-217-r7 is installed and I don't understand how my system used to work right fine if I now need to have more udev something or other.
The above is as good as my memory can manage. My system is a new install just a week ago using profile default/linux/amd64/23.0/desktop (stable) and uname reports Linux 6.630-gentoo #11 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC x86_64 AMD Ryzen 9 5950X.
At this point understanding would be a luxury because I would be happy enough if I had functioning keyboard and mouse in X. ![Confused :?](images/smiles/icon_confused.gif)

For openrc systems systemd-utils with the udev useflag contains udev. For systemd systems systemd contains udev. |

I suspect that your keyboard problem in X is because udev is not running, so if we find and fix why openrc cannot start udev, we solve both problems at once. Please show the output of emerge --verbose --info sys-apps/systemd-utils, as run in state Q. |

| You built with USE=-split-usr, so systemd-udevd would have been written to /usr/lib/systemd. Your INSTALL_MASK deleted that directory and everything in it. Therefore, you have no /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-udevd, and thus it cannot be found. Rebuild systemd-utils without that INSTALL_MASK. |

I thought that -- much like garlic is famed to protect against vampires -- INSTALL_MASK="/usr/lib/systemd" would to some extent keep me safe from systemd; emphasis on "to some extent" given that systemd has evidently wormed its way into gentoo (as Pottering forecast: "the writing is on the wall").
That INSTALL_MASK is in my make.conf so I'm afraid that removing it invites the vampires to move in and party. Is there a way to override that mask on a per-package basis (similar to setting -use_flag in package.use) and if so, then how exactly does one do so? |

If you do not want to install anything from systemd, then the right way to do this is to tell Portage not to install any package associated with systemd. Use /etc/portage/package.mask to block all systemd-related packages. Use /etc/portage/package.use to instruct any packages with optional systemd support not to include that support.
You might, or might not, be able to use package.env to set INSTALL_MASK on a per-package basis. Only some settings are supported there. |

Sincerely appreciated, thank you.
EDIT:
My (failing) memory of my impression from googling about the issue is that some believe a degree of malevolence is (or will be) brought to bear to sprinkle systemd rot throughout various locations such that dealing with /usr/lib/systemd will not suffice to mitigate against systemd invading your system.
I found that /usr/lib/systemd on my system is full of all sorts of crap that I have no idea of how it got there. In any case, the following seems to work for me (so far; I suspect the future might demonstrate otherwise).
Code: | $ grep MASK /etc/portage/make.conf
INSTALL_MASK='/usr/lib/systemd'
$ cat /etc/portage/env/remove-systemd-install_mask
INSTALL_MASK=''
$ cat /etc/portage/package.env
sys-apps/systemd-utils remove-systemd-install_mask
$ rm -r /usr/lib/systemd/
$ emerge -v --ask systemd-utils
| Whereas Quote: | $ emerge --verbose --info sys-apps/systemd-utils | still reports Quote: | INSTALL_MASK='/usr/lib/systemd' | nevertheless I find
Code: | # ls /usr/lib/systemd/
network systemd-udevd
| In particular, /usr/lib/systemd now has far less shit. Moreover, after reboot X works fine -- I have mouse and keyboard
I intend to delete /usr/lib/systemd/network hoping that cruft can be dispensed with, but the experiment will have to wait -- I do not currently have the energy (courage?) to face fixing whatever that might break.
Finally, I will admit a willingness to commit making a $100 per year donation (as long as I live) to gentoo.org if that all goes toward rooting out systemd crap and preventing systemd invading the systems of those who despise it. A pipe dream perhaps, but if there were 5000 gentoo users like me -- I have no idea of how many people are so crazy as to use gentoo -- that would provide half a million towards the effort. |
