Thanks, I'll add them to the package.

Adding

Well, it's not voodoo, it's just poorly documented software (but still
excellent in comparison to hal). :-(

I use vserver and although udev installs on a guest, it apparently
doesn't run there. But I could probably make scanbuttond run inside a
guest by calling a guest command from a host udev rule.

This sounds reasonably, so let's try this way until someone
complains. :-)
