It seems to be a requirement for my system :

  root:515 ~> emerge -cpv hwids
    Calculating dependencies... done!
    sys-apps/hwids-20210613-r1 pulled in by:
      sys-apps/pciutils-3.7.0 requires sys-apps/hwids
      sys-apps/usbutils-014 requires sys-apps/hwids
      sys-fs/udev-249.6 requires >=sys-apps/hwids-20140304[udev]
      x11-libs/libpciaccess-0.16 requires sys-apps/hwids

  root:512 ~> eix hwids
    [U] sys-apps/hwids
    Available versions: 20210613-r2 **99999999*l {+net +pci systemd +udev +usb}
    Installed versions: 20210613-r1([2021-09-25 15:57:37])(udev usb -net -pci -systemd)

  root:513 ~> eix hwdata

    Installed versions:  0.353^t([2021-12-11 22:30:38])
   
Am I missing something ?

Yes, you seem to be missing the (perhaps not so) recent commits to the
tree which prepared the tree for the removal of sys-apps/hwids. Please
try syncing and doing a world update then checking again.
