Yes, I saw that rule (and it hasn't changed recently). I also have a
rule that creates a symlink for a certain USB-serial adapter in
/etc/udev/rules.d/99-user.rules:
SUBSYSTEMS=="usb",\
ATTRS{product}=="FT232R USB UART",\
ATTRS{serial}=="AH026Q3X",\
KERNEL=="ttyUSB*",\
SYMLINK+="ttyDBG",\
GROUP="uucp"
I didn't used to need to set the GROUP in that rule, the device file
just defaulted to having a group of uucp. Yesterday, I had to add the
"GROUP" command to get the behavior I always used to get without it.
