Description Tom Killian 2007-12-11 17:28:44 UTC 
Description of problem:

The rules in /etc/udev/rules.d/nut-usbups.rules are always ignored, so that the
device-special file in /dev/bus/usb associated with a USB-connected UPS ends up
with the wrong ownership and permissions.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

kernel-2.6.23.1-21.fc7
udev-116-3.fc7
nut-2.0.5-6

How reproducible:
Every time.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Attach UPS to USB port.
2. "lsusb" to learn where it is; sample output:
   Bus 001 Device 002: ID 051d:0002 American Power Conversion Back-UPS Pro
500/1000/1500
3. Look at the device-special file; in the case of the example:
   ls -l /dev/bus/usb/001/002
  
Actual results:

crw-r--r-- 1 root root 189, 1 Dec 11 11:30 /dev/bus/usb/001/002

Expected results:

crw-rw-r-- 1 root nut 189, 1 Dec 11 11:30 /dev/bus/usb/001/002

Additional info:

/etc/udev/rules.d/nut-usbups.rules starts out with the conditional:

SUBSYSTEM!="usb_device", GOTO="nut-usbups_rules_end"

but tracing with udevtest suggests that the desired SUBSYSTEM is "usb"; making
this change to the rules file seems to fix the problem.
