Since the global masking of hal useflag, you need to install eeze and e_dbus with udev useflag.

Again, ask in #gentoo-e on freenode, I am idling there 24/7 and you will get faster answers. I am not always browsing the forums.

I think I found eeze-9999 as a solution for that problem with the first google result.

Hmm, I emerged it on June 11th, 00:16. Anyway, that's it with live ebuilds, always some kind of struggling involved (perhaps >eeze-1.0.1 should be added to the enlightenment deps). Aside from that, e17 currently runs rockstable on my system, and I can't tell the same about supposedly stable KDE 4.6.4

What was your issue? Did you try the places module? Tommy[D] should finally get rid of that one, upstream is unmaintained and it really needs hal on your system.

I hear you! I also don't understand the obsession, as you call it. It is actually the first time I noticed that a working, stable feature is masked by removing the useflag from profile, when there is not even a security thread.
