-# Udev does not support reading compressed hardware databases.
-# Upstream was approached about adding this functionality to udev;
-# however, the idea was rejected (see comment #28 of the bug below).
-# Since pciutils only stores the compressed database on disk when the
-# zlib use flag is on and usbutils is moving toward doing the same,
-# the udev maintainers (myself and Robin Johnson <robbat2@gentoo.org>)
-# agree that the best way forward for this bug is to package.use.mask
-# zlib for pciutils and usbutils until the upstreams agree or udev
-# upstream moves away from using the databases these packages provide.
-# This way, zlib support can be left on for everything else and neither
-# udev nor base-system needs to carry custom patches.
-# Please do not unmask without speaking to myself and Robin.
-# See bug #360849 for the details.
