There should be no separate USE flags for udisks:0 and udisks:2. They can
be installed *and* ran at the same time.
If both are supported, and it's a compile time option, :2 should be forced
If both are supported, and they can be automatically detected at
runtime, || ( sys-fs/udisks:2 sys-fs/udisks:0 ) syntax
should be used
We have a Tracker open for migrating to udisks:2 and adding udisks:0
support is a bug (regression)
