Dear Andreas, thank you for the hint about post-installation scripts.
The colleague whom I lended my Eyes17 box could check the compatibility of expeyes software vs. modemmanager with success: this validates the udev rules file. I uploaded a fixed package to unstable, anf filed an unblock request to release.debian.org people. The debdiff file is rather big, because a new version (4.8.8) had been uploaded prevously to unstable, which features some ironing of documentation files, and removes many useless files in the binary package eyes17. Best regards, Georges.
