Package: libfprint0 Version: 1:0.4.0-4-gdfff16f-4 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
libfprint0 installs some udev rules to make fingerprint readers accessible to the plugdev group. However, since many fingerprint readers are built-in to computers, they are never plugged in, and thus the udev rules never fire. The result is that after installing the package, the fingerprint reader does not work for non-root users. libfprint0 should trigger the udev rules when it installs them. I think this can be done with the "udevadm trigger" command. By default, this will trigger change events for all devices. I'm not sure whether that could have undesirable consequences. You could limit the events to just fingerprint readers with a series of udevadm trigger --attr-match=idVendor=xxxx --attr-match=idProduct=xxxx Possible dh_installudev should help you with this.
