I think the wording is not quite good yet. The sentence "udisks needs
libgudev which is provided by eudev" is wrong, because libgudev can
also be provided by libgudev. What about instead:

	# When eudev is used as the udev provider, libgudev is
	# automatically provided as it is part of eudev. However, when
	# systemd is used as the udev provider, libgudev is not
	# provided, and needs to be built separately. This is why we
	# select the libgudev package only if systemd is used.

(Or something along those lines, my english is not perfect, for sure).
