Hi
While checking the udev rules in the Debian archive, I noticed a problem
with the entry for libbladerf1. It fail to grant access to local users
originating for a remote user directory like LDAP, because it depend on
plugdev group membership. The emerging way to to fix this is to use the
uaccess udev tag. This is handled by /lib/udev/rules.d/70-uaccess.rules
for all rules setting the ENV{ID_SOFTWARE_RADIO}="1", which seem to be
the correct approach here. This setting is used by other software
radios. Also, the current matching rule will match PCI and other
subsystems. I suspect you only want to match USB devices?
Here is a patch implementing this change:
