| Package | Status | Who | Link / Discussion / Bugreport |
|---|---|---|---|
| udev | open | udev rules maybe should be in /lib/udev/rules.d - because applications drop it there https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Udev udev rules written by the administrator go in /etc/udev/rules.d/, their file name has to end with .rules. The udev rules shipped with various packages are found in /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/. If there are two files by the same name under /usr/lib and /etc, the ones in /etc take precedence. but maybe not a must, because opensuse 12.2 still has the udevrules still in /etc |
