Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ddccontrol

The documentation for ddccontrol indicates that the devices are
restricted to root access by default, and that in order to provide
access to normal users, one should execute `chmod a+rw /dev/i2c-*`.  As
a workaround, there is a gksu entry in the gddccontrol .desktop file.

In preference, there should be a udev rule that grants access to these
devices to a restricted group so that gksu is no longer required.

** Affects: ddccontrol (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Wishlist
         Status: New

** Changed in: ddccontrol (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided => Wishlist
