Package: udev Version: 0.056-1 Severity: wishlist setting custom rules in udev.rules should not be the recommanded behaviour. It leaves to having to either refuses udev.rules upgrades or manually merge back changes at each upgrades (and it happens often).
I don't know why i only though about it lastly but using a local.rules and symlinking it in rules.d feet all my needs. Why not make it the default ? Ther could also be a machanism for packages provided rules (i hope those will fetch data from sysfs and propose to make rules soon) in the way apache does for virtualhosts ? If one udev guru could provide them examples (if possible able to deal with non udev cases) they may be more open to such wishlists too (and i would really prefer them to fix bus in their package than trying to deal with udev ...).
