(moving to -upsdev since it is really more of a code maintenance
question)

Sigh. Good to know that we will need to update that at some point.
(I wonder how many older udev installations we will break if we
change that now? Guess we could ship two copies.)
The change in r2071 might not be correct in the first place. See the
following (which ironically, I found through the comments in this
commit):
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/hotplug/udev.git;a=blob;f=NEWS#l850
This suggests (among other things) to change SYSFS to ATTRS (not
ATTR), exactly what seems to be needed to make the rules files work
again. Without digging much further into this, I think it makes
sense to follow that and use ATTRS instead.
Arjen,
I have seen at least one file on an Ubuntu 10.04 box which uses both
methods, and makes it conditional on whether the kernel is sending
"usb" or "usb_device" events:
# UDEV-style hotplug map for libmtp
# Put this file in /etc/udev/rules.d
ACTION!="add", GOTO="libmtp_rules_end"
ATTR{dev}!="?*", GOTO="libmtp_rules_end"
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", GOTO="libmtp_usb_rules"
# The following thing will be deprecated when older kernels are
phased out.
SUBSYSTEM=="usb_device", GOTO="libmtp_usb_device_rules"
GOTO="libmtp_rules_end"
LABEL="libmtp_usb_rules"
# Creative ZEN Vision
ATTR{idVendor}=="041e", ATTR{idProduct}=="411f", SYMLINK+="libmtp-
%k", MODE="660", GROUP="audio"
[...]
GOTO="libmtp_rules_end"
LABEL="libmtp_usb_device_rules"
# Creative ZEN Vision
ATTRS{idVendor}=="041e", ATTRS{idProduct}=="411f", SYMLINK+="libmtp-
%k", MODE="660", GROUP="audio"
Looks like Ubuntu changed to the udev which supports ATTRS sometime
between 6.06 and 8.04 (2006 and 2008), but I haven't tracked down when
the kernels changed over.
