I got this message after an update:
* Messages for package sys-apps/util-linux-2.24.1-r2:
* The mesg/wall/write tools have been disabled due to USE=-tty-helpers.
I understand that wall has been moved from sys-apps/sysvinit to sys-apps/util-
linux, but I am not sure why USE=-tty-helpers is disabled as a default. I
couldn't find anything mentioning this in gentoo-dev, but this could just be
my poor searching skills. Does anyone know?

Because upstream util-linux disables tty-helpers by default regarding
it's ./configure --help,
as they are not deemed important commands
