Or such applications depend on a libu2f-common package. Is there any history regarding other udev > files for hardware with similar properties? You mean like mtp (libmtp-common → /lib/udev/rules.d/69-libmtp.rules), gphotos (/lib/udev/rules.d/60-libgphoto2-6.rules), argyll (/lib/udev/rules.d/55-Argyll.rules) or sane (/lib/udev/rules.d/60-libsane.rules), just to name a few? You can try and convince systemd/udev upstream, to ship those rules. If they agree to that, I have no objection. I object though to ship that as a downstream patch. -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
