Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: bitpim

The /etc/default/bitpim file is supposed to allow one to configure the
ownership of devices that bitpim handles. These are not being applied in
my case and therefore bitpim cannot access the phone. I tracked the
problem down to /lib/udev/bpudev. The following code snippet (lines
31-37) causes the problem.

# udev fires off a whole bunch of devices, most of which we don't need.
# By visual inspection, the one that we want has the same Kernel No and
# SYSFS{devnum}.
# XXX - this appears to fail for removals. :-/
if [ "$2" != "$3" ]; then
     exit 2
fi

I changed /lib/udev/bpudev to log the arguments and it turns out that no
device message has argument 2 and 3 the same. I will attach the log.
