Package: qcontrol
Version: 0.4.2-1
Severity: important

Since upgrading to udev 0.140, the qcontrol init script fails with:
qcontrol error: gpio_keys device not available

Reason is a small change in 60-persistent-input.rules that results in the
symlink /dev/input/by-path/platform-gpio-keys-event- no longer being
created. As this device is currently hardcoded in qcontrol, this needs
discussion with both the udev maintainer and qcontrol upstream.


As a workaround users can create a file /etc/udev/rules.d/60-qcontrol.rules:
KERNEL=="event*", ENV{ID_PATH}=="platform-gpio-keys", \
        SYMLINK+="input/by-path/$env{ID_PATH}-event-"

Note that this file should probably be removed again with a next upgrade
of either udev or qcontrol (depending on where it will be fixed).
