I'm not sure what this does, either. Someone may come along in a
moment with better advice, but as a first step I'd `equery b /etc/
initi.d/device-mapper`. If it says that device-mapper doesn't belong
to any of your current packages then I think you can safely (remove
it from the default runlevel and subsequently) delete it, otherwise
I'd reemerge the package to which it belongs.
