** Tags added: apport-collected
** Description changed:
steam-installer on Linux installs steam-devices which is used to
configure udev permissions to allow steam programs/games launched as
regular users to access common controller devices.
I'm running Plucky 25.04 with Steam installed with the steam-devices
package
steam-devices:
Installed: 1:1.0.0.82~ds-3
Candidate: 1:1.0.0.82~ds-3
Version table:

I can confirm the files installed this via dpkg:

/usr/lib
/usr/lib/udev
/usr/lib/udev/rules.d
/usr/lib/udev/rules.d/60-steam-input.rules
/usr/lib/udev/rules.d/60-steam-vr.rules

/usr/share/doc
/usr/share/doc/steam-devices
/usr/share/doc/steam-devices/changelog.Debian.gz
/usr/share/doc/steam-devices/copyright
Looking in the file /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/60-steam-input.rules, it
appears that is missing newer devices that are shown in upstream
repository managed by ValveSoftware:
https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-devices/blob/master/60-steam-
input.rules
This has the impact of not allowing some controllers, such as the PS5
DualSense Edge controller from being accessible correctly by games
launched by Steam.
