Package: usbmuxd
Version: 1.0.8-3
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

today's upload of usbmuxd prompted me to look
/lib/udev/rules.d/85-usbmuxd.rules which runs
RUN+="/usr/bin/pkill -x -SIGUSR2 usbmux" whenever a new device is
attached. The usbmuxd triggers a new device discovery whenever it
receives that signal.

Imho it would be much nicer to drop that kill invocation from the udev
rule and make the daemon listen on hardware changes via libudev using a
udev_monitor [0]
