Public bug reported:
Hi all,
I'm reporting a problem on behalf of a friend of mine.
After the upgrade he was unable to connect to his mobile via the gnome ppp
application.
Log message:
--> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.60
--> Cannot open /dev/rfcomm0: Permission denied

s -l /dev/rfcomm0

$ ls -l /etc/udev/rules.d/

Manually adding:
$ sudo chown username:users /dev/rfcomm0
to rc.local "fixed" the issue.
Yes, I know that's not the proper solution but I failed to understand
the udev rule.
