Public bug reported:
In file /etc/udev/rules.d/README there is the statement:
" The udev daemon watches this directory
with inotify so that changes to these files are automatically picked
up, for this reason they must be files and not symlinks to another
location as in the case in Debian."
But the udev-rule from package libchipcard-tools is placed in /etc/udev,
and there is a softlink to that file in /etc/udev/rules.d.
This doesn't work, the rules aren't evalutated. I copied the relevant
rule from that file to a new file in /etc/udev/rules.d, and now it
works.
So IMHO the place for the configuration file within that package should
be changed.
This also applies to to file /ect/udev/logitechmouse.rules from package
kcontrol, but I didn't know how to add to packages to one bug report...
** Affects: libchipcard (Ubuntu)
