Description Michael Tatarinov 2023-04-12 05:16:03 UTC 
Description of problem:
The rtl-sdr uses the obsolete group mechanism in udev rules. The correct action is to use tags the devices as 'uaccess'.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
0.6.0^20230403git142325a9

Steps to Reproduce:
1.grep plugdev /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/10-rtl-sdr.rules 

Actual results: see rules using plugdev

Expected results: no plugdev use
Comment 1 Jaroslav Škarvada 2023-04-13 13:53:57 UTC 
It has ENV{ID_SOFTWARE_RADIO}="1" which is processed and tagged by uaccess rule, thus it works correctly on desktop.

What's wrong with the plugdev? It's for server usage and workaround for cases where there is no logind / logged user.
Comment 2 Jaroslav Škarvada 2023-04-13 13:56:24 UTC 
But on Fedora it should be rtlsdr group, not plugdev. I will fix it.
